NORTHEAST WIS. – Known to her friends as ‘Barbie Bluebird,’ Barb Allen has been working hard for years with the Bluebird Restoration Association of Wisconsin (BRAW) to track and promote population growth of bluebirds and other native bird species. Her efforts of monitoring over 400 nest boxes in Marinette, Brown, Door, Kewaunee, Oconto and Florence counties and being an award-winning county contact have made Allen one of the most accomplished birders in the state.
