SUMMARY:Hummingbirds: Chasing Flowers for 1\,000 Miles (Part 1)
DESCRIPTION:PPRV is excited to partner with Klamath Bird Observatory (KBO) for this two-part series about hummingbirds! The first part will be a learning journey in a classroom setting. The 2nd part will be an outdoor walk & talk to identify hummingbirds! Join for both\, or just one! \nWe all recognize the tiny\, dazzling hummingbird—but these birds are far more than just cute. Hummingbirds are extraordinary travelers\, migrating thousands of miles across North America while facing intense challenges such as predation\, habitat loss\, and a rapidly changing environment. In this talk\, we will explore what makes hummingbirds so special and different from other birds: their remarkable abilities\, their unique biology\, and the reasons they have been recognized as powerful spiritual symbols across cultures. You can make a difference in a hummingbird’s survival. Join us to learn how to help these incredible birds—and reconnect with and care for the nature around you. \nPart 1 – February 8\, 2026 – Martín López Aguilar will share will share fascinating insights into the biology\, behavior\, and conservation of hummingbirds\, drawing from years of hands-on field research and outreach.

SUMMARY:Misinformation & Disinformation | SOCAN General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Misinformation and disinformation are undermining our democracy. We need to know how to identify them. Join us to explore how we can do it. \nThomas Jefferson summed up a critical element required of us in defense of our democracy: “An informed citizenry is at the heart of a dynamic democracy.” Recognizing and thwarting misinformation and disinformation are essential components in generating and maintaining an informed citizenry and defending our democracy. These are the scourge of credible journalism. Regrettably\, increasingly the forces of darkness seek to overtake society with conspiracy hoaxes driven by misinformation and disinformation. They are often enabled by a citizenry seeking stories that appeal to their confirmation bias rather offer credible information that may challenge that bias. \nThat we all need to be able to recognize misinformation and disinformation when it knocks on our door is clear. For those in the credible news arena\, it’s even more important that misinformation and disinformation should be identified and given no quarter. Southern Oregon Climate Action Now’s February Public General Meeting at 6:00 pm on Tuesday February 24th will feature a discussion of misinformation\, disinformation and how the credible media deal with it. Bert Etling\, Executive Director of Ashland.news\, will offer his perspectives on this troubling issue and share advice on how we can recognize this fraud when it appears. \nSOCAN’s general meetings are free and open to the public. There is no charge for attending. \n*This meeting is not sponsored nor endorsed by Jackson County Library Services
