Bluebird Pharmacy’s own, Brett Moyer, just published a peer-reviewed, scientific article on the movements of populations of an imperiled species, the Black Skimmer, in NE Florida. To read the article, see…https://plos.io/41NRaLc
Bluebird Pharmacy promotes the therapeutic benefits of interacting with Nature: LocalNatureRx. For the last decade, we have monitored nest boxes weekly at various schools across Duval and St. Johns counties, so that students, teachers, and parents can delight in the sight of a bluebird. Those nest boxes have produced about 1000 baby bluebirds so far!
A second species that captivates us is the Black Skimmer. Regulars with Bluebird Pharmacy will recall posts over the past several years regarding Brett’s weekend observations of banded individuals at the beaches of NE Florida. He’s modeling Nature Therapy on these forays and—through the publication of this research—contributing to the conservation of this gem of a species. Moreover, the article explains how you too can participate in such research and help the scientists investigating bird species.
These contributions to the conservation of local bird species are just a few examples of how Bluebird Pharmacy works to make our community a better place. Please consider us as your first option when you need supplements, prescriptions, or custom compounding of medications.
