ONE OF THEM IS TO SPREAD YOUR WINGS AT ELLIS BIRD FARM
Have your feathers ruffled by this incredible bird conservation centre dedicated to mountain bluebirds, tree swallows and other native cavity-nesting birds. The working farm houses the world’s largest collection of bluebird nesting boxes, but the big draw is the flocks of purple martins, the only bird species dependent on humans for housing. Opening weekend kicks off on May 22, with the first public appearance of Ellis and Albert, the farm’s Great Horned Owl chicks born this past winter.
