'Ijahrei.McOougolli.Presittent Of Boyfield
Bluebird Society, Group Has _Made •
• .* IfeadWay In Attempti To Save Speciei
•
The Bayfield Area Bluebird
Society was organized in May.
Its object is to do everything pos-
sible to bring back bluebirds to
the. Bayfield area , including the
townships of Goderich and Stanley.
Bluebirds have teen. practically
extinct in this aria. In 1970 a ,
pair was discovered by Philip' and
Greta Du Boulay of Bayfield , nest-
ing in an old cedar post on the
20th sideroad of Stanley.
Harvey MacDougall put out
nesting boxes in the fall of 1969
and he,has continued with this
work. Results have been gratify-
ing,. He had 15 boxes out in
197.0 and 1971, with no nestings.
Last year with 60 boxes out he had
three nesting; this year with 150
boxes along concession lines he
had. 17 nestings from which 49
young bluebirds were fledged.
Bill Wisser of Goderich has had
some success, too , working most -
ly in the Dungannon area.
The Bayfield group applied to
the NeW Horizons program for
assistance in organizing the retir ,
ed in building a great number of
boxes, • getting these put up in
suitable locations; checking these
periodically. and keeping records
on nestings. From the work done
so far it seems certain that the
bluebird can be brought back to
something like their old numbers
provided there is careful planning
and continuing work over the years
The .Bayfield group have plans
to work with the schools and
young people generally.
Word has just come through that
the Bayfield group's, application
for $5000 to underwrite this work
has 'been approved under New
Horizons auspices. This will en-•
able the purchase of lumber.,
steel posts (where necessary) and
other supplies. No remuneration,
is allowed the retired persons work:,
ing on the project.
The Bayfield council has set •
aside a room in the Town Hall • •
for box building work this coming
winter,
- The officers of the society are;
Harvey MacDougall, president;
Philip Du Boulay , vice . -
president; Mrs. Frank Burch, sec-
retary; and Brig.' Morgan Smith,
treasurer. Directors in addition
to the above are; Mrs,. Gwen
Pemberton, Miss Jessie Metcalf,
Mrs. Robert Blair , Miss Dorothy
Reinke, Dick Moore and Reg
York.
When these directors were
young the bluebird was quite com-
mon throughout this area. It was
particularly welcome as the harb-
inger of spring', with males tom-
ing north in: Marchand the
females 'following in April. With
its cheery song , its lovely light
blue back and rusty red breast , it
has often been called the contin-
ent's most-loved bird. The name
"Bluebird of Happiness" has been
well applied to it.
The Bayfield group feel that
many things of their youth which
have gone cannot be, brought back
back not so the bluebirds. The,
starlings ,' the loss' of the old rail
fences, pesticides, many things
have made it difficult for the
bluebirds to survive. But if they
are given "a leg up" with the
building of nesting boxes to take
the place of the woodpecker holes
'in the old cedar fence posts, the .
bluebird can be brought back.
The Bayfield group was greatly
encouraged last summer by the
gift of 100 boxes by the SWEEP
organization working out from
Exeter. These young people put
up these boxes in the south part
of Stanley Township. A number
of these boxes' should have blue-
birds nesting in them ' '
next summer.
