Day 5 - Biologist/Researcher at BORR

Input from Beth, a UC Berkeley Researcher studying Kestrels

Beth has built and installed 40 bird boxes at BORR which she visits periodically on day trips from Berkeley.

IDEAL FACILITIES
•her experience as a GSI of Ornithology: 35-40 students on field trips, most would like to sleep indoors-40 beds would make BORR a popular field station
•she would like work consuls for computers
•small storage space (for feathers)
•a tank of liquid nitrogen or -70 freezer
•a place to stuff birds

IDEAS FOR INTEGRATING HABITAT AROUND RESEARCHER HOUSING
•different lengths of grasses for habitats
•bluebirds
•swallows
•bird feeders
