Birds-I-View
Missouri State Bluebird Society


The North American Bluebird Society was established in 1978, and has
certainly played a prominent role in the great “Return of the Bluebird”
populations that our continent has experienced in recent times. NABS
(The North American Bluebird Society) has an extensive group of state
Affiliate organizations all across the U.S. and Canada. Unfortunately,
although Missouri’s state bird is the Eastern Bluebird, there was no
“State Affiliate” organization for Missouri. After meeting so many
dedicated Bluebirders here in Missouri, we are happy to say that problem
has now been rectified!The "Missouri Bluebird Society " has been
formed ,thanks to the efforts of the following dedicated Bluebirders:
Dr. Jack Dodson, Missouri Bluebird Society President
Steve Garr, Vice President
Dr. Lorraine Dodson, Secretary
Debbie Rathert, Treasurer
Jim Rathert , Board of Directors
Regina Garr, Board of Directors
Michael O'Keefe, Board of Directors
Stop by Birds-I-View anytime to visit with Steve & Regina about Bluebirds!
(Or any birds!) Steve is the Bluebird Columnist for the Nature Society
News. A native of Nashville, Tennessee, Steve Garr founded the state
Bluebird organization for Tennessee, and has served on the Board of
Directors of the North American organization as well as having served as
their Vice-President and President. Steve and his wife Regina (a native
to the state of Missouri) also founded and maintained the “Shelby
Bottoms Bluebird Trail” in downtown Nashville, Tennessee, successfully
fledging hundreds of Bluebirds into this metropolitan city park for
everyone to enjoy. Steve’s 29 years of research on bringing Bluebirds
back to the City, as well as his advice on bluebirding, are featured in the
recent book: The Bluebird Monitor’s Guide, Harper Collins Press. Steve
& Regina are very excited about the opportunity to contribute to forming
Missouri’s own Bluebird Society!
We look forward to seeing you at the next MISSOURI
BLUEBIRD CONFERENCE ! Steve & Regina Garr
