Olympic BirdFest
BirdFest offers a major birding event in the wild and untamed Olympic Peninsula, hosted at the new facility of the Dungeness River Nature Center. The North Olympic Peninsula comprises a strip of coastlines and forests between the million-acre Olympic National Park and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The steep rise of the mountains allows birders to sample coastal, riparian, forested and montane habitats in close proximity. The Dungeness River Watershed, for example, drops from 7800 feet to the sea in only 32 miles. The central location of the Dungeness River Nature Center puts all these habitats within reach of birders.

Volunteer Planting – Serenity Lane
Join NOSC on January 25th to plant trees and shrubs along the Dungeness River!
An aerial image of the Dungeness River, taken in 2020. Photo by John Gussman.
As part of an ongoing riparian forest restoration project, we will be returning to the Dungeness River to plant trees and shrubs at the Serenity Lane Riparian Restoration Project. In previous years, this site underwent a massive invasive species removal effort. We aim to fill in the remaining portion of the project with native plants. This diverse future forest will grow to shade the salmon stream, control erosion, and provide habitat for the birds, insects, amphibians, and mammals that also call the Dungeness ecosystem home.
Planting Details:
Saturday, January 25th
10am – 2pm
Please arrive by 10am for site orientation. We’ll take a break for lunch around noon. A site tour will take place at about 1:30pm.
Please bring lunch, water, and layers/footwear you need to be comfortable in our winter weather!
Directions will be provided in RSVP confirmation email.

About the Project:
In 2015, the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe purchased and removed several homes at danger of washing into the Dungeness River. The Salmon Coalition joined the Dungeness River Riparian Project in a massive community effort to remove invasive species and replace them with native plants, including seeding the area with riverbank lupine. In recent years, Serenity Lane has been the site of several NOSC student plantings. It is time to return to the site to fill in remaining areas with native trees and shrubs, ensuring invasive vegetation remains at bay.

Volunteer Planting – Dungeness River
Join NOSC on January 11th to plant trees and shrubs along the Dungeness River!
New growth on plants at the Caldero Side Channel Project in Spring 2024. Photo by NOSC.
As part of an ongoing riparian forest restoration project, we will be returning to the Dungeness River to plant trees and shrubs along the Caldero Side Channel Project (on Fish Hatchery Road). Two years ago, hundreds of volunteers helped plant several acres of future forest along a new side channel of the Dungeness. After being snowed out for several plantings last year, we are returning this January to finish the job! We aim to improve plant density and plant the remaining portion of the project. This diverse future forest will grow to shade the salmon stream, control erosion, and provide habitat for the birds, insects, amphibians, and mammals that also call the Dungeness ecosystem home.
