Upstate Nesting Project Update!

January 21, 2023

This past week, SCWF staff worked with residents in the Keowee Key community to install nesting boxes for Wood Ducks and Eastern Screech-Owls as part of SCWF’s Upstate Nest Box Program.

Through this program, which is a partnership with Duke Energy, our staff and volunteers will install 40 nesting boxes for each species prior to the start of the 2023 nesting season. This is a collaborative project which aims to engage the community in long-term and sustained conservation actions. Read more about the project here.
