Conservation Lunch Series: Owl Hour

We are excited to host Kate Belleville, Wildlife Biologist, Licensed Falconer and Environmental Educator. Her talk will focus on the amazing adaptations and challenges faced by North American owls, and how you can be involved in bird related citizen science projects near you! She will be joined by her rehabilitated, non-releasable western screech owl.

The lecture will be hosted by the Shasta Land Trust at 5170 Bechelli Ln, Redding, CA.

Her field work and jobs with state, federal and private organizations as a biologist, animal trainer/zookeeper and environmental educator have taken her around the country, where she has primarily specialized in birds and snakes. More recently, her research has focused on local birds of prey species including American goshawks, bald eagles, osprey and red-tailed hawks. She has also established a raptor nest monitoring volunteer position with the National Park Service through Whiskeytown National Recreation Area where she monitors bald eagle and osprey nests for the park.
