📣 Birds & Brews "Artist" Spotlight on...the Avian Animal Ambassadors! 🦅

One of the most exciting acts gracing the Birds & Brews stage this year will be the Avian Animal Ambassadors of Wildlife Images Rehabilitation & Education Center! These divas of the sky are a veteran act with hundreds of performances under their belts. Their commanding stage presence, always stylish plumage, and pure animal magnetism have made them a hit with crowds of every age. We're thrilled that this group will not only be performing on the Birds & Brews main stage (from 2:30-3:00 PM), but will also be holding a more intimate show where fans can enjoy a front-row experience seeing the artists up close (off stage from 3:00-3:30 PM). You can't beat that folks!

Coastal or Pacific Giant Salamander (Dicamptodon t

Coastal or Pacific Giant Salamander (Dicamptodon tenebrosus) females appear to lay their eggs mostly during early to mid-May, which they then guard closely until hatching. The few nests that have been discovered have been in subterranean habitats in running water. These salamanders have one of the longest incubation periods of any salamander - hatchlings won't appear until the winter, six to seven months after egg laying. It then takes 5-6 years for Pacific Giant salamanders to reach maturity. They are also one of the few, or only, salamanders to “bark.”
.
Karuk believed that the Coastal Giant Salamander purified water and was a sacred sign of high water quality of springs, creeks, rivers and ponds. The resemblance of Pacific Giant Salamander’s eggs to acorns may have given rise to a Karuk tale in which the amphibian gathers and caches acorns by building pyramids of them and covering the acorns with straw so that they will be dry when eaten in winter. A woman was running late and gathered some of the salamander’s “acorns” to supplement her own acorns. Known as Poof-Poof, the amphibian followed her home and apparently made that noise until she left all the acorns outside. In the morning only Poof-Poof’s acorns were gone.

Interested in learning the benefits and uses of the plants and herbs around you? Join herbalist Lauren Kemple in "Medicinal Plants of Early Summer" Sunday June 18th and learn first hand!
.
You'll traverse some gorgeous terrain in the east Applegate Valley and hills of Jacksonville, while getting to know many native and naturalized medicinal plants. This class is especially for the frazzled and frayed among us. We’ll focus in on nervines and adaptogens, herbs that nourish and support us in times of stress and exhaustion. We’ll end the day making a tincture and sun tea of plants we saw in the field, so you can try the plants out yourself!

See details and book your space at the LinkTree in our bio under 'Field Courses'!

Calypso Orchids (Calypso bulbosa) bloom as early a

Calypso Orchids (Calypso bulbosa) bloom as early as early March and as late as late June. Their flowering peak is generally in May at mid-elevations and April in low elevations. Unusually, this plant produces no nectar or pollen to entice pollinators. Instead it relies on its fragrance, the small hairs on its lip resembling pollen, and inexperienced bees early in spring who will check out potential food sources at least once or twice.
.
Appropriately, given the guise of Coyote as a trickster among many cultures, the Karuk name for the beautiful and beguiling orchid glosses as “coyote’s shoes.” Calypso was a Greek nymph, sorceress and daughter of Atlas who kept Odysseus on her island for seven years. The nymph’s name originally meant "concealment."

📣 Birds & Brews Artist Spotlight on...The Lynx

📣 Birds & Brews Artist Spotlight on...The Lynx Family Band!

The final act we're welcoming to the Birds & Brews stage is a rock ‘n’ roll family band of songwriters making modern classic rock music. "Sisters and brothers Dream, Love, Odin, and Eve along with mama Mayple and dad Cleo are the Lynx Family Band. The family was raised on the sunny beaches of California, then the Red River valleys and piney flats of East Texas before finding their home in the Pacific Northwest. Thus, their musical style offers an easy west coast vibe mixed with bluesy rock and a little southern heat. Their sound takes influence from acts like Fleetwood Mac, Wilco, Mazzy Star, Jeff Buckley, and Tedeschi Trucks Band." You check out the Lynx Family Band on Spotify here https://open.spotify.com/artist/2ztjdYooa3BPMeKYuYuTlX

📣 Birds & Brews Artist Spotlight on...Michal Pa

📣 Birds & Brews Artist Spotlight on...Michal Palzewicz!

Composer and multi-instrumentalist Michal has played many prestigious stages throughout the US and Europe, including Carnegie Hall in NYC, Wigmore Hall in England, and our very own Birds & Brews Stage last year, where his cello performance was a crowd favorite!

"Creating a world of dreams and magic is the dimension of Michal’s music. His music is full of contrast, on one hand surrounding us with a comforting blanket of sound and on the other hand drawing from the brilliant virtuosic tradition of Classical music. Michal’s intention is to create a cathartic experience bridged by a deep-rooted feeling of peace and at other moments connecting to the senses through a state of high energy, active imagination and playfulness. The music draws inspiration from nature and expresses gratitude for its infinite gifts." You can sample some of Michal's many varied talents at http://palzewicz.com/
