The Mount Shasta area offers outstanding opportunities to view more than 300 species of birds. The varied landscape, with its numerous creeks, rivers, lakes, wetlands, and wildlife refuges, attracts birds throughout the year–from Greater Sandhill Cranes nesting in the spring to hundreds of Bald Eagles that winter in the Klamath Basin Refuges. The Mount Shasta Area Audubon encourages birders by providing field trips; a colorful map titled “A Birder’s Guide to Driving Routes in Siskiyou County”; a checklist of birds in the county; and occasional programs. The chapter is also involved in education and conservation efforts to protect and enhance this beautiful region.
We do our best to keep these pages updated, but the best way to stay up-to-date is to join Mount Shasta Area Audubon Society (see below). You can also find us on Facebook, where we post chapter activities, contact other members, and enjoy birding tips and timely articles. Click here to find Mount Shasta Area Audubon on Facebook.
