' ' Providing Homes For Bluebirds Is Subject Of Brochure i If XT ( i IT (k f few 3m I -N i fit - 5 1 t "CP" ' I --1 , I - I t : i s I t r f Bluebirds can once again be seen in many parts of the Carolinas due largely to the conser vation efforts of bluebird enthusiasts such as Jack R. Finch, retired nurseryman from Bailey, North Carolina. Finch says that "the bluebirds are receiving my social security payments." His brochure entitled "Come Back Little Bluebird" (available for 50t and SASI-frorn-Homes For Bluebirds, Bailey, NC 27807. Tel. (919) 235-4280) outlines whatl is being done for the beautiful native bird. "Homes For Bluebirds"' is a nonprofit organiza tion devoted to pro-j pagating bluebirds. ! s Since the importation of European starlings and English sparrows in to this country, their ag gressive competition has; usurped the usual nesting sites sought by Easternj bluebirds and other native cavity nesting: birds. So Finch and, others try to Supplement the ' naturally occurring cavities in dead trees and ' jdecaying fence posts with nestboxes of a par ticular design. The most critical feature is an en trance hole l'i" in diameter, which effec-1 tively eliminates start-1 ings, since they cannot' fit into the opening. Jack Finch also, assisted bluebirds when, he alerted tobacco farmers of the bird traps, jin their curing barns. i This was the pot type oil curer with a 6" smokestack and rain cap which had no bird screen or guard. The bluebird's; natural fpnifonra in Ivtlrl ' " inside a cavity was often the first - step to disastrous death. Since tobacco barns prior to 1957 numbered nearly 100,000 and an average of twenty died in each jbarn, the toll of dead bluebirds from 1947 to 1954 was estimated to be' in the millions. This type of barn flue is no longer hwidespread use. 3erubbabel - Day; Service In 1978, "Finch joined his efforts and expertise with a continent-wide j bluebird m6vement as a founding member of the: North American .Bluebird Society v Members of C.

"No one appears willing to take the first step to bridge the jsjap. 5 1; also feel that because blacks here have been treated as in ferior and laughed at because they are different from whites, that when we see someone different, we tend to just pass the behavior on. I think a lot of people sec different as funny." : Another studertt, who asked hot to be identi fled because his answer is embarrassing, said:-"I feel kinda fun- 1 . ny because these African students are all so smart. But, I cover that up by acting superior to them." , s . Ad so, much of the problem, the rift : between ' Central's black . American students and .
