Shasta Birding Society’s 50th Anniversary Celebration

Information below on Zoom meeting details.

Shasta Birding Society is inviting all members, past and present, to celebrate our 50 years in the greater Shasta County area and the North State of California. Our event is limited to two hours, including: displays of artifacts and memorabilia, testimonies and time for sharing, cake and beverages, and an exciting presentation by Erika Iacona.

In 2022, in cooperation with Shasta Birding Society, AltaCal Audubon Society, and Lassen National Park, Erika led Shasta County’s first Northern Saw-whet Owl migration monitoring program. We are all proud of the dedication that Erika has put into this wonderful mission, and love that she will be sharing this with us.

Here are a few things for anyone who wants to join this event by Zoom:

Zoom meeting has a special start time: 6:20 pm to allow those who can attend a chance to enjoy what we hope are the highlights of our evening. Specific speakers of our membership will share moments from our past, present, and our future. Our Zoom time will end after the presentation by Erika.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has embarked on a controversial control program to protect federally endangered Northern and California Spotted Owls (Stix occidentalis spps.) from displacement by the Barred Owl (Strix varia), a species native to eastern and Midwest north America. Barred Owls have been successfully competing with and displacing the federally protected Spotted Owl throughout the Pacific Northwest for many years. The FWS plans to kill up to 450,000 Barred Owls over the next 30 years to help prevent the feared extinction of the Spotted Owl. The program has been either supported or opposed by a variety of conservation organizations and individuals. 

Join us at 7pm Wednesday January 14, 2026 for a special presentation, debating this controversial Barred Owl population control program! Tom Wheeler (Executive Director, Environmental Protection Information Center, Arcata, CA), and Stephen Hernick (Managing Attorney, Wildlife Law Program of Friends of Animals, Greenwood Village, CO) will (calmly) provide opposing viewpoints on this hot topic. 

Location: Turtle Bay Nursery Classroom, 1100 Arboretum Dr, Redding, CA 96003
