This Oregon festival combines birds and fermented grapes. The second annual Fern Ridge Wings and Wine Festival will take place May 12 at Secret House Winery in Veneta, west of Eugene.

The tentative schedule includes bird and nature walks, canoe trips, childrens’ activities, educational talks and wine tasting. A gourmet Dinner in the Cellar will precede an owl-calling walk on the winery’s grounds.

Do you know of other bird festivals that officially incorporate adult beverages into the schedule?
