Spring Bird Migrators in our Newest Permanent Conservation Area

Saturday, April 27, 8am-12pm join Denny Olson, Flathead Audubon Conservation Educator (and “Bird Whistler”) for a birding tour in Owen Sowerwine Area, part of the migration superhighway of the great Rocky Mountain Trench. Over 160 species have been seen there, and the “regulars” include Pileated Woodpeckers, Bald Eagles in all age classes, Ospreys, Pygmy, White and Red-breasted Nuthatches, Merlins, Sharp-shinned and Red-tailed Hawks, Great Horned Owls, two kinds of Chickadees, and the constantly singing Red-eyed Vireos. The Stillwater River is a migration channel for many kinds of waterfowl. Limit is 10 participants (narrow trails). We will keep a waiting list.
