Join us for our traditional end of the season picnic at the Camden House in the Tower House Historic District at 6:00 pm on Wednesday, June 11th. It is located on the south side of Highway 299 West just west of the turnoff to French Gulch. Bring your own brown bag dinner and we will eat by the creek and then go birding on the Camden Water Ditch Trail. This is a one-mile dirt trail that loops around the historic Camden House, Tenant Farm House, barn and outbuildings. Hiking boots are recommended. We hope to see Lawrence’s Goldfinch, Lazuli Buntings, Bullock’s Orioles, Western Tanagers, and maybe an American Dipper. An entrance pass is required to use the area and can be purchased online at Your Pass Now. Senior, Access, Military and the Interagency Annual Pass can also be used. Contact trip leader Larry Jordan at webmaster@shastabirdingsociety.org for more information.

Tyler Compton, Interpretive Park Ranger, will provide us with a program on Shasta County’s own extraordinary unit of the National Park System. Since Whiskeytown National Recreation Area is a frequent destination for birdwatchers and much of the lake is included in the annual Redding Christmas Bird Count circle, our members have requested an update on what is going on in the park. Tyler will answer our questions about the plans for rebuilding Whiskeytown Environmental School, the park’s ongoing recovery from the Carr Fire, the projects taking place around the Camden House and in the surrounding Tower House Historic District, the discussion of a renovation of the visitor center, and the new construction in the campground area. As an education specialist for Whiskeytown, Tyler will explain what kinds of programs and events may be offered to the public in the coming year.

Shasta Birding Society is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
