RVAS First Wednesday of every month Bird Walk at Denman Wildlife Refuge
Wednesday, October 1
Jim Hostick from RVAS will be leading a bird walk and count the first Wednesday of every month at Denman Wildlife Refuge in White City, located at the Agate Road entrance in White City, (about 1/4+ mile past the fire station on the left). This is an ongoing citizen science project, the numbers of different species observed by walk participants are entered in the Cornell Ornithological Laboratory's eBird database. The gate will be opened at 8:00am and closed at 8:20am, walk begins at 8:30am, and participants will need to purchase a ODFW parking permit. They can be purchased at the ODFW office on E. Gregory Rd. or any retailer that sells hunting and fishing licenses. For more information regarding these walks go to: roguevalleyaudubon.org
