SUMMARY:Meet Bella and Darwin: Parrots in Conservation Education
DESCRIPTION:by Zachary Szablewski \n\n\n\nClick on photos for larger view. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYellow naped Parrot\n\n\n\n\n\nWild parrot species in Central America and South America are threatened by human activities. Efforts are underway to reduce these threats and help these beautiful birds thrive in their natural habitat. Our speaker\, Zach Szablewski will discuss a current project to re-introduce Yellow-naped amazon parrots back into natural forest reserves in Costa Rica.Two live parrots\, Bella and Darwin\, will both educate and entertain us. Zach will explain how to enrich the lives of companion parrots that are not suitable for release into the wild. Please join us for this event. Families with children are welcome.Zach has worked as a restoration biologist at Rocky Mountain National Park and as a volunteer researcher and field biologist across the United States and in Costa Rica. His varied experience includes studies of threatened wildflowers in Texas\, endangered cacti in our Southwest\, and Harbor seals in our own Puget Sound. His most current work with parrots\, frequently takes him to Costa Rica.All of our Program Nights are open to the general public. You do not need to be a member.

SUMMARY:Bass Lake Complex Bird Walk
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, April 26 @ 9:00 am – 1:00 pm (Primary Date)Saturday\, May 1@9:00am – 1:00 pm (Backup Bad Weather Date)Leaders: Ken Schroeder and Dolly Owen \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin leaders Ken Schroeder\, and Dolly Owen for a half-day exploration of the Bass Lake Complex Natural Area. We do a one-way walk to explore three different lakes in this lowland basin along a well-maintained trail\, for a total of 1.8 miles. There are only a few gentle uphill sections. We go slowly for birding and nature study. With luck we will observe birds\, spring flowers and possibly a glimpse of the Mt. Rainier Elk herd. Our walk ends at the mysterious “Sinkhole Lake” with a well-deserved reputation of being bottomless. \n\n\n\nThe Bass Lake Complex is a ten-minute drive from Flaming Geyser State Park. \n\n\n\nSinkhole LakeWe meet at Sinkhole Lake with four cars at 9:00 am. Two cars are parked here while the other two cars shuttle eight birders to our starting location at Bass Lake. At the conclusion of the hike\, we shuttle back to the starting point and go our separate ways. Stopping for lunch at the nearby\, and world famous\, “Black Diamond Bakery” is optional.We must have a total of four cars that each seat four to shuttle between the starting and ending points. This bird hike is capped at six participants\, plus two leaders for a total of eight. We remain together for the entire outing. Bring hiking boots\, a water bottle\, a few snacks\, rain gear\, binoculars\, an optional hiking pole\, and your sense of adventure. If the weather is bad\, we will postpone to the following weekend.To sign up\, email Ken Schroeder at kenschroeder@msn.com. No need to worry if this outing fills quickly. We can schedule another one in May if you don’t win the lottery this time. Ken is also at 253-939-7470.
