I second what Mike says! This is the first year I will be attending the
festival myself and I will also be a speaker. I will be giving a talk on my
six-year study of Western Bluebirds nesting in natural cavities in ponderosa
pine forests along the east-slope of the Cascades. During this talk I will
be discussing types of snags they use, who creates the cavities, nesting
success, and other aspects of their nesting ecology away from nest boxes.
Hopefully I will meet some of the tweeter's participants and get to put some
faces with names.

Hope to see you there.
