Ecuador is arguably one of the most species-rich countries in the world. As a science teacher, it was Ken Sobon’s lifelong dream to visit the Amazon jungle. Follow his journey from Quito, the historical city on the Equator, to the high-altitude cloud forest, making stops all the way down to the Amazon Basin’s Rio Napo.

Ken Sobon is an avid birder and has been a science teacher to middle school students in Oroville since 1995. He is the President of AltaCal and is the Northern California representative on the California Audubon state board. He has also been the Director of the Northern Saw-whet Owl Research Project for the past seven years.

What do you know about Saw-whet Owls? If you’re like most of us, probably not much. But
these little birds are all around us, year-round, fighting out their fierce lives in our forests and
woodlands. Come learn about these neighbors from Ken Sobon, director of the Northern Saw-
whet Owl Research and Education Project in Northern California.

Ken Sobon is an avid birder, field trip leader, Vice President of Altacal Audubon Society, and is
