Chapter Meeting - Nominations for Election plus Program: Falcons for Fun and Usefulness by Howard Ward
2026-04-09 18:00 - 20:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Unitarian Universalists Church, 129 NW E Street, Grants Pass, OR, 97526, United States
Howard Ward has lived in Grants Pass since 1980, and has been married to the same lady for 45 years. His career was in auto body repair for 44 years, and when he retired he needed to find something to do. Then about fifteen years ago, his best friend got him into falconry. Howard will bring one or two falcons to the meeting. They have never been wild birds. Howard will discuss how he gets the falcons, their training and use, including information about the telemetry used to track them when they are in the field.
Prior to the program, the Siskiyou Audubon Society, will take nominations for openings on the Board. The roles coming open include Vice President and one Director position. Board terms are two years. Board members meet once a month September through May. At these meetings they plan activities and take an active role in the decision-making process of the Society. Please consider becoming a Board member to help drive the future of our group!

3rd Tuesday Bird Walk at Reinhart Park
2026-04-21 08:30 - 23:30 | Reinhart Park, 1690 SW Webster Rd, Grants Pass, 97526, United States
Fran Taylor leads a bird watching walk in Reinhart Volunteer Park in Grants Pass on the 3rd Tuesday each month September through June.
Meet at 8:30 a.m. at the parking lot for the Agnew-Lyttle baseball field, the first parking lot on the right as you enter the park. Dress for the weather and possibly wet grounds, and bring your binoculars. If you don’t have any, we have a spare pair to loan. If you are a photographer, bring a camera. You may want to bring water and a snack.
Spring migrants will still be coming in, and many of the birds will be nesting. We’ll hope to see warblers, Osprey and maybe a Yellow-breasted Chat!
