Bird Walk

Join the Deschutes Land Trust and Jen Zalewski for a spring bird walk at Priday Ranch. We'll listen for singing yellow-breasted chats and common yellowthroats along Trout Creek. Rock and canyon wrens may be calling from the rocky hillsides and Bullock's orioles are usually found by the farmhouse. Explore the Preserve while looking for 30+ species here at this time of year. Registration is required and opens 1 month prior to the event.
