Mark Your Calendar!
The 2010 Winter Wings Festival sponsored by the Klamath Basin Audubon Society is now history! Preparations are now underway for the 2011 festival and this website will be completely updated late this fall. Until then, this website contains all the information about the 2010 event. That will give you an idea of the activities that take place, but remember - there will be many new and exciting activities in 2011. Sign up for our email list (see below) for updates.
Located in both south central Oregon and northern California, the Basin is a key player on the Pacific Flyway, hosting 80% of the birds that use the Flyway. A total of six separate nearby refuges comprise the total National Wildlife Refuge complex spanning nearly 200,000 acres. A unique, strong cooperative partnership between farming, water resources, and the refuges provides an abundance of food and water that attracts vast numbers of waterfowl and raptors.
Phenomenal birding/nature-related opportunities for all ages are yours at the Winter Wings Festival. Whether you are a beginning birder, a life-long birding enthusiast, or a photographer of any skill level, you will be impressed by the rich diversity present in the Klamath Basin during wintertime.
