Kara Jakse leads bird walks for the Land Trust and volunteers surveying birds at Land Trust protected lands. She has worked on many bird-related projects for East Cascades Audubon Society including capping outhouse vents to prevent birds from falling into the vault, collecting mosquitoes to test for West Nile Virus as part of a Sage Grouse study, and helping to build a bird blind at Cabin Lake. Kara also enjoys hiking and kayaking (with her binoculars, of course).
