Building a Better Birdhouse

What did you do on your winter break? Dr. Lauri Green, Graduate student Victoria Roper , and undergraduates Brooke Ritter and Ashley Bent have been busy building bird houses. The bird houses will be used in Victoria's master's thesis research on the effects of acid mine drainage on insect-eating birds in Pennsylvania streams. Check out the photos below for bird house building in action!
