We are hard at work planning for the Eleventh Annual Mono Basin Bird Chautauqua. Check back here for future updates. Here is a complete list of birds seen during the 2011 Chautauqua.

Jeff Maurer Chautauqua Research Grant for 2012
Each year a portion of the proceeds from the Mono Basin Bird Chautauqua fund a small grant that supports continuing research and education connections. The grant is named in honor of Jeff Maurer, a dedicated field biologist, educator, and long-time Chautauqua presenter. The Jeff Maurer Chautauqua Research Grant application is now available, and this year we are pleased to offer upwards of $2,000 to further research and education connections in the Eastern Sierra.

Sunday's musical guest is The Adam Burns Band This performance is free and open to the public on Sunday, June 17 at 12:30pm at Mono Lake County Park!
