Episode 1: The Osprey of Lincoln City

Oregon Coast Birdcast

Paul interviews Ruth Shelly, Vice President of Audubon Society of Lincoln City (ASLC) about the migratory Osprey population of Lincoln City, Oregon. We get to know Ospreys, their habits and behaviors, and what makes our iconic State Raptor so special. Ruth shares about ASLC’s Osprey Awareness Initiative, an education and community science project that aims to educate the public about Ospreys and monitor their nests in the area.

In the introduction, Paul provides an overview of what birds you can expect to see this month on the Oregon Coast. At the end of the episode, ASLC Digital Media Coordinator Nissa Parker jumps in to share news about ASLC events and projects.
