From the sunny side of the Oregon Cascades, welcome to Paradise Birding.
WOODPECKER WONDERLAND FESTIVAL A SMASHING SUCCESS! It has been an amazing summer for woodpeckers in the Central Oregon Cascades. In the Sisters area alone, we have found over 30 active nests of 10 different species (that Pileated nest continues to elude us)! The first annual Woodpecker Wonderland Festival, June 6-8, was a tremendous success, and we invite you to next year's big woodpecker party June 5-7, 2009. (The Black-backed Woodpecker nest shown here was just one of many nests we watched during the Festival!)
SOUTHEAST ARIZONA TOUR FULL In a few weeks, we head to Southeast Arizona for the peak of the monsoon and our "Summer of Hummers" tour. We're full for 2008, but you can put it on your calendar for August 2-9, 2009.
