Join the Vancouver Audubon volunteer trip leaders on this amazing trip!

Champoeg State Park (just south of Wilsonville, Oregon) offers some unique birding opportunities for our area. There are over a dozen Acorn Woodpeckers in a colony in the abundant oak groves. Western Bluebirds have been invited to stay yearlong with numerous nesting boxes and are extra vivid in their deep blue and orange-brown plumage.

There is ample parking space in the Champoeg SP visitor center parking lot. Carpooling would be a great idea, as there is a $5.00 day use fee for OR state parks payable at a kiosk on site, or yearlong passes can be purchased online.

We will leave the park before lunch and all the walking is mostly on paved pathways with no steep and difficult areas. The restrooms at this park are amazing and always open for visitors (possibly the best SP restrooms ever).

Register at Ken at kenp@vancouveraudubon.org. If you would like to be included on text updates, be sure to give Ken your SmartPhone number when you register by email at kenp@vancouveraudubon.org.

This will facilitate immediate updates for cancellations due to illness or stormy weather. Let Ken know if you are willing to carpool, or would prefer to ride with someone near you and need a ride.
