Nehls, Committee: [email protected], 2736 SE 20th Ave., Printed on Portland, OR 97202. 503-233-3976 Recycled Paper A Message from your President Mary Anne Sohlstrom, President, 4810 Lancaster Dr. NE #204, Salem, OR 97305 [email protected] I recently had the opportunity to visit the Nebraska Ornithological Union. Ray Korpi, OFO past president, has been a member of NOU for 20 years and invited me to join him in Halsey, Nebraska for the NOU Fall Field Days, Sept. 7th & 8th. NOU holds their Fall Field Days at a 4H Summer Camp facility nestled in the heart of the Nebraska National Forest. For those of you who have not had the opportunity to visit Nebraska, the Nebraska National Forest is in the middle of the Nebraska Sand Hills country, which covers roughly one-third of the state. The forest celebrates it’s 100th anniversary this year — not only as a National Forest, but as a FOREST! This unique site is the only hand- planted forest in the United States. For a kid from Oregon, this was pretty amusing. And for our OFO members who hail from Nebraska (Tanya Bray, John Sullivan, Ray Korpi and his folks, Ray & Janet Korpi) — you all have a fine forest! The sixty-five or so Nebraska birders gathered for the weekend were like birders everywhere. There were a few questioning looks and amused shrugs over the report of a Carolina Wren, excitement over the Canada Warbler and possible Yellow-billed Cuckoo and general satisfaction over the 115+ species tallied on a very hot weekend. Everyone was friendly and welcoming and pleased that an Oregonian showed up for their event. And, this visit prompted me to finally purchase and wear an OFO T-shirt! The OFO Board of Directors is working to re-establish the fall event at the Malheur Field Station. It seems that having an opportunity to gather together for a weekend of birding and fellowship can only strengthen an organization. We hope to have our Fall Malheur Weekend back on the OFO schedule next September; an informal gathering with a Saturday evening program, a few organized field trips and time for folks to bird on their own. While I was in Nebraska ticking the Canada Warbler, Red-headed Woodpecker, Mississippi Kite and Blue Grosbeak folks were finding Hooded Warbler, Blackpoll Warbler and Ovenbird at the Malheur! I hope all of our members will join us at Malheur, September 2003. Perhaps we can get a few of those Nebraska folks to join us? Sometimes, discussions over the identification of rare birds can get animated... but usually not this animated! This photo of dualing coots was taken at the Redmond Fireman's Pond, Deschutes County, by Kevin Smith. Oregon Birds 28(3): 103, Fall 2002 The Records of the Oregon Birds Records Committee, 2001-2002 Harry Nehls, Secretary, Oregon Bird Records Committee, 2736 S.E. 20th. Ave., Portland, Oregon 97202 From July 2001 to July 2002 the Oregon Bird Records Committee (OBRC) completed the following records. The first group of records are those for which the written report and/or photographs or specimens supported the stated identification and are accepted records. If photo(s) or specimen is indicated for a record it was accepted as verified. Other records were accepted as sight records. Of the 55 records reviewed by the Committee 42 were accepted and 13 were not accepted. During this period four new species were accepted for addition to the Official Checklist of Oregon Birds: Brown Booby, Long-billed Murrelet, Cassin’s Kingbird, and Yellow Wagtail. The Official Checklist now stands at 481 species. Information presented below for each species includes location of sighting, number of birds, sex and age if known, special information (such as collection and museum number) and date(s), initial of the observer(s) submitting written or other evidence for accepted records, and the OBRC record file number. The OBRC record file number reads as follows: the first 3 digits are the AOU number for the species, the second 2 are the year in which the record was observed, and the last numbers are the consecutive numbers for the records as they are filed. The members of the OBRC for 2002 are David Bailey, Tom Crabtree, Jeff Gilligan, Gerard Lillie, Larry McQueen, Craig Miller, Craig Roberts, Skip Russell, and Owen Schmidt. The alternates are: Tim Janzen, Hendrik Herlyn, David Lauten, Steven Dowlan, and Ray Korpi. Tom Crabtree resigned during the year and Tim Janzen was assigned to fill his position until the next election. The OBRC thanks the following organizations for having made financial contributions in the past year to help with expenses: Cape Arago Audubon Society, Central Oregon Audubon Society, Audubon Society of Corvallis, Grant County Bird Club, Grande Ronde Bird Club, Kalmiopsis Audubon Society, Lane County Audubon Society, Audubon Society of Portland, Salem Audubon Society, Umpqua Valley Audubon, and Yaquina Birders and Naturalists.

The elevation ranges from about 600 to more than 7400 feet, from steep mountains and canyons to gentle foothills and flat valley bottoms. This variation along with the varied marine influence support a climate that ranges from the lush, rainy western portion of the ecoregion to the dry, warmer interior valleys and cold snowy mountains. Unlike other parts of Oregon, the landscape of the Klamath Mountains ecoregion has not been significantly shaped by volcanism.

    Butte Falls Resource Area Resource Butte Falls BLM Mountain of the Rogue Trail System Environmental Assessment DOI-BLM-OR-M050-2013-0009-EA March 2014 BLM/OR/WA/PL-14/018+1792 Dear Reader: The Bureau of Land Management has completed the environmental analysis for the proposed Mountain of the Rogue trail system. This environmental assessment (EA) documents that analysis. The proposed mountain bike trail system near the city of Rogue River, Oregon would provide recreation opportunities for mountain biking and hiking; however, the trail would be specifically designed for mountain bikes. Construction would be completed in phases as funding becomes available. Initially, up to 10 miles of trail would be constructed, with the possibility of expansion in the future. If you would like to provide us with written comments regarding the Mountain of the Rogue Trail project and EA, please send them to Bureau of Land Management (Attention: Trish Lindaman), 3040 Biddle Road, Medford, OR 97504. Email comments may be sent to [email protected] (be sure to include “Attention: Trish Lindaman” in the subject). The 30-day comment period for this EA begins when the legal notice of the EA’s availability is published in the Medford Mail Tribune newspaper. Any comments you may have regarding Mountain of the Rogue Trail project must be received by April 9 in order to be considered in the final decision for this project. If confidentiality is of concern to you, please be aware that comments, including names and addresses of respondents, will be available for public review or may be held in a file available for public inspection and review.
