Supporting the Fairbrook United Methodist Church Buffer
In springtime, migrating birds stop over the pond across from Fairbrook, along Tadpole Road, making this area of interest for birders. By restoring the stream across the road, and connecting it with the properties across the way, we are restoring important migratory bird habitat with native vegetation.
In the pond along Tadpole Road, there have been sightings of Shore Birds, Tundra Swans, and a variety of other species. The newly planted streamside buffer includes native shrubs, trees, and a native meadow. ClearWater will continue to care for this site in collaboration with the landowners and volunteers to ensure that the native vegetation establishes. Growing a native streamside buffer takes time. We are excited to see what bird species utilize the newly planted area.
Community Support
When ClearWater Conservancy needed blue bird boxes to initiate our efforts, we reached out to our neighbors at Doing Good with Wood. Kyle, Dave, and John wasted no time in supporting our mission. They provided newly built blue bird boxes in the blink of an eye!

On Sept. 17, Dave and Kyle met ClearWater volunteers in the field to guide and support efforts in posting the boxes. Dave, a Pennsylvania Master Naturalist, shared his wealth of knowledge regarding the birds, their habitat, proper spacing, and installation techniques with our team. Together, our group set forth to install the first three (out of six) bird boxes.

Once the boxes were installed, our volunteers planted six trees. With blue bird shelters established and trees in the ground, it is safe to say this was a successful morning! The weather was beautiful, and our crew adorned bright smiles.
Thank you to the volunteers Jen, Dave, and Elli for conducting the tree planting with ClearWater Staff!
