A local conservation group has been looking to re-establish Western Bluebirds on Vancouver Island for three years, and now they’re seeing the fruits of their labour.
Jemma Green is a coordinator with the Garry Oak Ecosystems Recovery Team.
Green says a flock of the Bluebirds was recently spotted on Mt. Tzouhalem.
She says that is a good sign for population growth because birds that over-winter are healthier, and more likely to breed successfully in the spring.
