SUMMARY:Purple Martin Workshop - Travis Audubon
DESCRIPTION:Do you want to know more about Purple Martins\, how to set up a colony\, and be a Purple Martin landlord? Are you an existing landlord wanting to meet other Martin aficionados and learn tips? Have you always wanted to be a citizen scientist\, gathering useful data that can help Martin conservation efforts? If so\, this Purple Martin Workshop is for you. \nThe first Purple Martins typically arrive in Austin at the end of January\, so this class will give you information you can put to use right away\, either at your own colony\, or observing Martins at Hornsby Bend or any other existing colony. \nThis class will focus on the life cycle of Purple Martins and how you can participate as a Purple Martin landlord or helper. You will learn the maintenance routine recommended by the Purple Martin Conservation Association. You will also learn how to record and send in nesting data that is compiled nationally. We will also go outside to do hands-on nest preparation and discussion. Class participants are invited to participate through mid-June as helpers and observers as the class teachers maintain and record the Purple Martin season. Later in the summer\, we will invite class members to join us in educating others at our giant Purple Martin parties. \nCourse instructors Andy and Julia Balinsky have been the Purple Martin stewards since 2003. They have watched over 3000 Purple Martin babies fledge during that time. They have also spent many evenings watching the Martin pre-migration staging roost in the late summer. \nThis class will be in-person at the Hornsby Bend Center for Environmental Research. No virtual option is available. Class participants should plan to take notes. You’re welcome to bring your own snacks or lunch.

Please join us as we create a pollinator garden and a wildflower prairie. \nThe pollinator garden will be near the front entrance of the school to welcome winged creatures as well as children and their families as they enter school in the morning. The wildflower prairie will be located alongside the school so that the whole neighborhood can have increased access to beautiful green spaces\, and local wildlife can find more habitat and food sources. The workday will take place at 518 E. Magnolia Avenue from 9 am to noon. We will be digging and planting\, so bring your shovel and gloves and prepare to get dirty! (We will have extra shovels if you don’t have one.) Thanks to support from Bat Conservation International and Bexar County Audubon Society\, we will install two phases of ecosystem renewal at the school\, which is new to the Mark Twain Dual Language Academy family. \n*Google might tell you that this is Rafael Gonzales Early Childhood Education Center\, but that is outdated information. Make sure you don’t end up at the main campus\, on San Pedro Avenue\, but if you do it’s ok because you are only one mile away.
