No place to rest\, refuel the car\, drink water\, eat food… nothing to replenish yourself to continue the journey! \nLike a key pit-stop\, migration stops are extremely important for traveling birds. Even more\, Black Lake Preserve—where 100% of its birds are migrants\, is an extremely important place for bird in the eastern branch of the Pacific Flyway. \n  \nSo why should you come to see them?  \nIt is important for us to visit and see places that are unique\, special\, and that play a vital role for migrant species as it helps us understand the necessity and benefit of preserving with purpose. \n  \n“It is a privilege for us to even see it and experience it.” – Santiago Escruceria \n  \nWe invite you to celebrate the importance of migratory birds passing through the Eastern Sierra on the weekend of May 8th-9th for a self-guided birding tour at Black Lake Preserve. \n  \nBelow we share with you all you need to be a sharp birder\, such as: \n\nImportance of Migratory Birds and their preservation\nQuick how-to on recording your findings\nDirections & etiquette\nAttached site specific bird list\n\n  \nWhy are Migratory Birds important? Migratory birds are essential to the habitats in which they return to seasonally for mating and feeding and nesting. Birds play a vital role in pollination\, food production\, food sources\, and pest regulation. It is crucial that the habitats which these migrating birds return to from their long journeys\, are healthy habitats. \nWhy is Black Lake Preserve an important habitat? Black Lake Preserve was donated to ESLT by Michelle Browner in 2014 and with help from Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS)\, Black Lake Preserve is permanently protected from certain uses including development and subdivision. This means it will remain as open space habitat in perpetuity. As well\, Black Lake Preserve’s wetlands are an important stopover for migratory birds\, earning it a designation by Audubon Society as an “Important Bird Area.” \nBirding and recording your findings: \n\nBecause this is an Important Bird Area\, we would love for you to share with us the birds you see and record your data to Cornell Lab of Ornithology in a citizen science effort.\nUse a pencil & paper or try eBird if you have a smartphone! A how-to for using the eBird birding app can be found at here.\nIf you take pictures or see anything exciting\, tell us and we’ll share it on the ESLT website! Send your findings & photos to Gabrielle@eslt.org.\n\n  \n \n  \nHow to get to Black Lake from Bishop\, CA: \n\nDrive 34 miles north on Highway 6 to the town of Benton\nTurn left (west) on Highway 120\nGo through the historic town of Benton Hot Springs and reach the intersection of Benton Crossing Road and Highway 120\nIn about a mile\, will reach two dirt roads—both are accessible\n\n  \nOnce you’ve arrived: \n\nPark along Hwy 120 on the side nearest the lake and walk the dirt road to the turn-out at the end. Here you will reach the interpretive sign & overlook.\nDriving the dirt road between the Hwy and the Birdwatching Overlook is not recommended (narrow\, soft sand and full of car scratchers).\nFrom the overlook\, you can read the interpretive sign—a watercolor map with a trail indicated (the trail is a winding footpath that follows old cattle trails)\n\n  \nBirding Etiquette and Safety Protocols: \n\nPlease leave your furry friends at home or keep them on leash and well-behaved\nKeep noise levels down to avoid startling wildlife\nUsing binoculars and avoid getting too close to wildlife\nBe kind to fellow birders\nPlease wear a mask when passing by other birders\nTreat Black Lake Preserve like your own migratory habitat and keep it clean!\n\n  \nWhat to Bring: \n\nHat\nWater\nSnack\nSunscreen\nBinoculars\nBird identification book (i.e. Sibley Bird Guide)\n\n  \nPlease Note: This is a self-guided event so you are welcome to come either day at any time. \nHowever\, if you are comfortable and interested\, Santiago Escruceria\, Eastern Sierra Audubon’s President\, will be at Black Lake on May 8th at 8am offering some guided tours if you are interested – mask wearing is highly encouraged for these to keep folks safe and comfortable! \n  \nDownload printable handout of this information here.

SUMMARY:Paya Film Screening and Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Paya: The Water Story of the Paiute Film Screening and Panel Discussion\nMay 25th from 6:00pm-7:30pm\n\nYou’re probably aware of some of the stories of water in the Owens Valley and Los Angeles. Books have been written on the subject and even Hollywood movies made about it. But there is more\, much more\, to the story.\n  \nPaya: The Water Story of the Paiute tells the untold story of America’s longest-lived water war between the Owens Valley Paiute and the City of Los Angeles. Millennia before Los Angeles diverted the Owens River through the Los Angeles Aqueduct\, the Paiute had constructed miles of intricate irrigation systems.\n  \nUsing archival maps from 1856\, the filmmakers spent four years working with Paiute elders to locate and map their remnant irrigation systems\, and ultimately laying the foundation for a ‘first use’ water rights case now underway.\n  \n\nJoin ESLT as co-host with The Owens Valley Indian Water Commission for an online screening of Paya: The Water Story of the Paiute and a moderated panel discussion with the following indigenous water protectors:\n\nBrian Poncho\, Bishop Paiute Tribe’s Board Representative for the Owens Valley Indian Water Commission;\nPaul Huette\, Vice Chairman of the Owens Valley Indian Water Commission; and\nTeri Red Owl\, Executive Director of Owens Valley Indian Water Commission.\n\n\n

SUMMARY:National Pollinator Week 2021
DESCRIPTION:National Pollinator Week \nMonday\, June 21th – Sunday\, June 27th \nNational Pollinator Week is here! What is National Pollinator Week\, you ask? It is a time for celebration and awareness of the health of pollinators! \nPollinators play a vital role in our ecosystem\, food chains\, and habitat well-being. In the United States alone\, bees are essential to the 150 and counting food crops. And while bees are a quintessential pollinator\, other pollinators that play just as important roles to the reproduction of plants include butterflies\, moths\, hummingbirds\, bats\, wasps\, and flies. \nAs there are a handful of pollinators\, there are countless native pollinators to California and some even native to the Owens Valley alone. The number of bees native to California reaches to about 1\,600 species and about 200 recorded native butterflies. \nIn support of our pollinators we are going to feature a native pollinator of the day throughout this important week! Along with a little info about each special species\, there may be a fun activity to do with the kids\, family\, or friends so keep a look out for these as well! \nA big action that you can take for our native pollinators and species is planting for them. Certify your garden as pollinator-friendly with ESLT through the Eastside Pollinator Garden Project. Learn more about this here. \nLet’s support our winged\, buzzing\, and busy native pollinators together! \n  \nVisit ESLT’s blog each day for info and activities on these featured pollinators:\nMonday\, June 21st – Squash Bees \nTuesday\, June 22nd – Monarch Butterflies \nWednesday\, June 23rd – Mason Bees & Blue Orchard Bees \nThursday\, June 24th – Leaf Cutter Bees \nFriday\, June 25th – Hummingbirds \nSaturday\, June 26th – Globe Mallow Bees \n  \n

SUMMARY:Great Sierra River Cleanup for the Owens River
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nSaturday\, Sept. 11th 8:30am-11am \nSafety first! Please bring and wear a mask to this event. \nEastern Sierra Land Trust and the California Coastal Cleanup initiative are hosting a Great Sierra River Cleanup in Bishop to clean up the Owens River after a summer of river activities. \nThe cleanup is the state’s largest annual volunteer event\, bringing tens of thousands of volunteers to the state’s beaches\, inland shorelines\, and rivers to remove the debris that has accumulated over the course of the year. Last year the statewide cleanup brought over 74\,000 volunteers out and removed over 900\,000 pounds of debris! \nShow some love and respect to the places you cherish and join us on Saturday\, September 11\, from 8:30am-11am. \nEastern Sierra Land Trust is following CDC and local public health department COVID-19 safety protocols in efforts to keep ourselves and our community safe while working to protect the health of our environment is still a priority. Therefore\, during this all-outdoor cleanup\, we are asking that volunteers wear masks and be mindful of distance. \nWe will be working to remove trash along the Owens River stretch near the Artesian Springs and Buckley Ponds. Volunteers will meet at dirt parking spots near the bridge over the Owens along East Line Street; 37°21’42.4″N 118°20’21.8″W \n \nData collection is key to this cleanup\, as the California Coastal Commission will use this data for conservation efforts and studies. \nWe hope that you are able to join us in making a dent in the litter along the river and cleaning up our beloved waterways for humans and wildlife alike! \nFor more information and to register for this event\, contact Gabrielle at gabrielle@eslt.org.
