SUMMARY:Adventure to Brazil
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to join the directors of Klamath Bird Observatory and Mantiqueira Bird Observatory for a 10-day adventure exploring the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil. The trip will be held August 13-22\, 2025. During the trip\, you will: \n\nVisit natural landscapes and enjoying scenic places;\nHike through a diversity of habitats;\nObserve birds and wildlife in nature;\nExperience local culture;\nLearn about birds\, bird observatories\, and international conservation;\nSupport Klamath Bird Observatory and Mantiqueira Bird Observatory science-based conservation beyond borders intern exchange program\n\nKlamath Bird Observatory is well known for its broad international reach\, focusing on partnerships and capacity building across the ranges of our shared birds. KBO’s bird banding internship program has trained over 283 interns from more than 17 countries. OAMa is a fruit of this capacity-building program\, which is now running its training program in Brazil. As part of the continued partnership between these two observatories\, we are pleased to announce a new internship exchange program! After training in their home country\, biologists will have the opportunity to visit and train at the other observatory. KBO will host a student from OAMa for three or six months each year\, and OAMa will host a student from KBO for up to three months at their field station in Brazil\, joining the local crew at the year-round bird monitoring on the Mantiqueira Highlands. \nIn addition to supporting the intern exchange program\, this trip will fund OAMa’s banding station for an ENTIRE YEAR! That includes six interns and one banding coordinator. Currently\, OAMa is the only banding training program in Brazil. \nThe cost is $5750 per person\, including in-country transportation\, single-occupancy lodging\, and meals with limited alcoholic beverages – the flight to Brazil is not included. The cost with a double occupancy discount is $5250 per person. \nA $ 3\,500 deposit is required to reserve your seat. The final payment is due six months prior to departure. Both the deposit and final payment are non-refundable. A portion of the cost directly supports the intern exchange program between the two bird observatories and is tax-deductible. The maximum trip size is 12 participants; some activities will be split into smaller groups. We reserve the right to cancel the trip before March 13th if the minimum number of attendees is not met. Trip activities will include moderate walking\, sometimes on uneven trails\, and away from facilities for half to full days. \nThis event is no longer accepting new registrations. If you would like to learn more about future trips to Brazil\, you can contact us here.

SUMMARY:“Up to the Siskiyou Crest (and Back)”: A History-and-Birding Auto Tour
DESCRIPTION:Whether you’re a newcomer to the region or an old-timer\, participate in a fun and information-filled auto tour led by historian/author Jeff LaLande and noted birders Frank Lospalluto (a KBO consultant) and Stacy Taeuber (a KBO Board member). \nLots of history: The car-pool route will include various “History Stops” (but relatively little actual walking) at such important places as Railroad Tunnel #13 (site of the infamous and tragic DeAutremont Brothers’ botched train robbery of 1923); the old Siskiyou Pass; Grouse Gap shelter (just past Mt. Ashland); the 1850s-1860s “Mountain House” stage stop; the 1846 Applegate Trail; the Hill-Dunn cemetery; and other spots — i.e.\, returning the “back way” (through the upper-most Bear Creek Valley) to Ashland by mid-afternoon. \nBirding among the wildflowers! Along the Siskiyou Crest\, we’ll hike a short stretch of the Pacific Crest Trail near Mt. Ashland. Wildflowers – lupine\, gilia\, Oregon sunshine\, corn lily\, and many other species may be in profusion\, and we will identify and enjoy as many of the flowers and trees as we can. Various raptors should be spotted\, as well as many other birds\, ranging from migrant Green Towhees along the section of the Pacific Crest Trail to Bullock’s Orioles and Acorn Woodpeckers down at Emigrant Lake’s historic Hill-Dunn cemetery. We’ll also encounter and discuss lots of fascinating geology along the way. \nNote: This event is limited to 25 people. We will travel in a car-pool “caravan” of up to personal vehicles (with up to four people in each vehicle). Bring your binoculars\, lunch\, drinking water\, or other beverages\, and your questions for Frank\, Stacy\, and Jeff. And feel free to share your knowledge about what we see! \nWhen: Sunday\, July 13\, 8:30 AM. (We will be back in Ashland by no later than 4:30 and likely well before that.) \nWhere: Meet at the Rite Aid parking area (off Ashland Street\, past Tolman Creek Rd) in the lot’s northeast corner. (Car-pooling will be necessary to keep the group to as few vehicles as possible.) \nMinimum donation: $50 per person
