Birding Field Trip

Malheur Wildlife Refuge

Trip leader Dave Parent has over 30 years of experience birding in Southeast Oregon. Join him on a camp out to one of the most amazing birding areas in North America. “We will bird the expansive Malheur Refuge, fields, the Pueblo Mountains, and possibly other hotspots. We hope to be onsite as the spring migration is in full swing and nesting birds are arriving from the south. One hundred species in the first two days is not unrealistic!” Headquarters is Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Page Springs Campground, first come first served—no reservations. Hotels are available in the area also. Contact Dave for details.
