This sounds like a program birders and photographers would enjoy. It is out on
by the Oregon Historical Society and OSU.

On the Road with Finley and Bohlman
Presented by the Oregon Historical Society & Oregon State University
The Oregon Historical Society & Oregon State University are proud to present
a retrospective on the work of early twentieth century nature photographers
William L. Finley, Irene Finley, and Herman T. Bohlman. Scaling trees,
fording rivers, and braving Oregon’s most rugged landscapes, they went to
almost any lengths to capture Oregon’s birds on film. Their photographs and
tireless dedication to education captivated the public and helped lead to the
creation of the state’s first wildlife refuges, laying the foundation for
Oregon’s legacy as a leader in conservation.
Join us for five nights of adventure and laughter across Oregon as we explore
rarely seen behind-the-scenes photographs and recapture the spirit of
Finley’s long beloved public programs.
