TRIP LEADER: RACHEL BAUER
Rachel Bauer grew up in northern California, earned a BS in Wildlife Biology from UC Davis, and is currently a wildlife field biologist for Plumas National Forest.  Rachel came to Quincy in 2002 to work on a Spotted Owl research project and has been studying owls on Plumas and Lassen National Forests ever since.  Her interests include old growth forest wildlife species and how they interact with fire and land management activities.  
The mission of Plumas Audubon is to promote understanding, appreciation, and protection of the biodiversity of the Feather River Region, especially birds, through education, research, and the restoration and conservation of natural ecosystems.
