Woodpeckers and Owls in Central Oregon

Central Oregon has so much to offer!  Woodpeckers, empids, and owls - galore!  The Dean Hale Woodpecker Festival takes place at the end of May and highlights some of the great birding spots in the area.  We lead a few trips as part of the festival, drank good beers, and did a bit of birding on our own.Main Story Begins at: 11:32Show notes:Buy me a CoffeeBirding is the world BrazilFlock To Marion AgainIC4WBRGVBF AOS Checklist proposalsAOS Checklist proposals simplified by the ABA BlogDean Hale Woodpecker FestivalMetolius PreserveCalliope Crossing eBird Trip Report  Birds/Animals mentioned:Flammulated Owl  Intro Bird Call:  Downy Woodpecker (Recorded April 2019, Oregon)Outro Bird Call: Hairy Woodpecker (Recorded January 2023, Oregon)Support the showConnect with us at...
