Built on two decades of efforts in the Klamath-Siskiyou Bioregion of southern Oregon and northern California, KBO is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing bird and habitat conservation through science, education, and partnerships. KBO’s work focuses in this bioregion, renowned for its outstanding biological diversity.
Klamath Bird Observatory conducts long-term monitoring and applied research projects that provide scientific results about bird population trends, demographics, life history, distribution and habitat relationships. Our scientific results inform conservation and land management decisions. Ongoing studies address decisions related to wildfire and fuel reduction, wetland habitat management, restoration effectiveness, and climate change.
Klamath Bird Observatory’s education program uses the best available science to help private, state, and federal land managers implement conservation objectives by using birds as indicators of resilient ecosystems. KBO reaches out to local communities and schools through classroom visits, field trips, camps, bird walks, presentations, workshops, visits to ecological monitoring stations, and community events.
Klamath Bird Observatory broadens the effectiveness and scope of its science and education programs through collaboration with an array of partners.
