Entrada/Awbrey Hall Burn (Bend)
Seasons
Checklists
Location
From the Bend Parkway (Hwy 97) in Bend, take the Reed Market Road Exit 139. Go 1.4 miles on Reed Market to a roundabout and take Century Drive out of the roundabout. Travel a couple of miles until you begin to see burned trees on both sides of the road. This is the Entrada Burn. It’s very close to the Entrada Lodge so that’s why some locals call it the Entrada Burn (It’s officially part of the Awbrey Hall Fire from 1990). Go past the lodge and look for side roads off to your left to access the burn. This road is 2.5 miles from the circle at Reed Market and Century Drive.
DirectionsHabitat and Birds
Scrub interspersed with ponderosa pines. This is a prime area for Lewis’s Woodpeckers and a site for an ECBC project looking at their nesting preferences. This is also a fine area to find Gray Flycatcher, Cassin’s Finch, Fox Sparrow, Brewer’s Sparrow and Green Tailed Towhee.
