The Dave Scott Bird Trail is a project of Skidaway Audubon that consists of over 200 bird houses, installed on posts with baffles, to provide a safe place for our songbirds to raise their young. Volunteers include Bird Trail monitors and woodworkers. Each week throughout the nesting season (mid-February to early September), trained volunteer monitors check each of the houses, record nesting activities, and address any needed concerns. This monitoring allows us to gather data on the number of nests, eggs, and nestlings, as well as how many of the nestlings fledge. By monitoring regularly, and year to year, adverse changes in breeding success can be spotted before population declines become obvious. As the Trail ages and weathers, repairs and replacements of birdhouses are needed to assure we provide safe nesting places. Experienced volunteer woodworkers build these replacement Trail houses. We supply our preferred birdhouse design plans, wood, and materials.

Members of the Bottle Brigade provide a great service to the residents on Skidaway Island. A volunteer for the Bottle Brigade is expected to cover an assigned route on a road or path either biweekly or once a week using a grabber to pick up all forms of trash. We will strive to find a route that is convenient for you. A volunteer can traverse a route by walking, golf cart or bike. A buddy system is an option. The motto for trash pickers is “if you see it, pick it up”, but only if you can safely do it. Reflective vests are provided. The Bottle Brigade is a dedicated and conscientious group of volunteers. We welcome your assistance.

Members will assist in development of, and promotion of, stewardship activities designed to Educate and Engage the residents of Skidaway Island and Enhance and maintain the beauty of the island. Members also may be asked to participate in golf cart tours while educating residents on Naturescapes and other hidden gems throughout the Landings.

Come help us maintain our 11 pollinator gardens throughout The Landings.  We meet on Monday mornings at 9 from March to the end of October.  We plant, maintain and have fun.   Or you can Adopt a Garden and make your own schedule. No experience necessary!
