​The researcher
Dr. George H. La Roi (1936–2018) committed his working life to demystifying the ecological workings of Canada’s boreal forests. He completed his undergraduate degree at Lake Forest  College in Illinois, where he also met his wife, Nanci. His subsequent graduate work at Duke University under Dr. Henry J. Oosting took him on a wild adventure from Alaska to Newfoundland to examine biological trends in white spruce and black spruce forests along this broad geographic gradient.

Nest Box Productivity Data

​The project: 
The Tree Swallow (Tachycineta bicolor) is one of the most familiar and most common birds in eastern North America. While it normally nests in tree cavities excavated by other species like woodpeckers, it also readily accepts nest boxes. Birds Canada has monitored roughly 300 nest boxes of tree swallows from 4 sites around the Long Point Biosphere Reserve, Ontario, from 1974 onwards. Each year, May through June, volunteer research assistants check nest box contents daily, and band the adults and their young. The study was run by David Hussell of OMNR/Bird Studies Canada for many years, until the 2000s, when it was passed to Birds Canada.
