USGA Summary Points: | Nestling eastern bluebirds are at low risk of pesticide exposure on golf courses. Eastern bluebirds are able to forage comparable type and amount of insect prey on golf courses compared to other suburban environments. Nestling bluebirds tend to be lower weight than reference birds, potentially affecting post-fledging survivorship. Continued research will track survival and pesticide exposure in juvenile birds. Additional work is needed to assess pesticide exposure and associated effects in other golf course wildlife and at other stages of the life cycle. |
