Backyard Bluebirds

Bluebird Project

In conjunction with the Kansas City Parks and Recreation Department, Jackson County Recreation, and Children’s International, the Kansas City Zoo has initiated a bluebird nest box trail!! The Eastern bluebird is our state bird and needs help in nesting areas. Twenty bluebird houses have been constructed and placed in appropriate habitats. Ten of the boxes have had success!! If you would like to help expand the trail, please donate to the Bluebird fund at the zoo by contacting (816) 513-5809 or donate@fotzkc.org.

Your donation will go directly to building and maintaining more nest boxes. Each $5.00 donation will build one house!
