WILDLIFE WATCHING -- The 2015 Tundra Swan Festival is set for March 21 in the Pend Oreille River Valley and the main attraction is already flocking in.

Bus tours hosted by the Kalispel Tribe's Natural Resources staff are planned to Calispell Lake to view some of the thousands of swans resting in the area’s open waters as their spring migration kicks into high gear.

Participants will re-gather at the Camas Wellness Center in Usk for lunch and a presentation on the Birds of Pend Oreille County by local Audubon Society organizer John Stuart, the local "Bird Man."

Another program, "Adventures on the Pacific Northwest Trail," will be presented by Harley Drum.

Cost: $10 or $5 for kids under 13.  (Pre-register by PayPay; space is limited.)

Sign up by Saturday, March 14. Info: (509) 447-5286
