Owen Sowerwine Natural Area. Leader: Denny Olson, Conservation Educator for Flathead Audubon
May 1, 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Meet at Kalispell Montessori School parking lot, and bring a snack to munch in the field. This is the absolute peak of riverbottom birds singing at the top of their lungs to establish territories and attract mates. Some are already nesting. Pileated and three other kinds of woodpeckers, two kinds of Chickadees, maybe a dozen warbler species, two kinds of Nuthatches, Osprey, Bald Eagles, two kinds of vireos, a dozen species of ducks, hawks and falcons, swifts and swallows — are a few of what frequents the cottonwoods along the Stillwater River this time of year. Weather depending, it can be pure action!
