Belfry brings bluegrass and blues to Sisters
Frank Solivan & Dirty
Kitchen returns to Sisters at
7 p.m. Thursday, March 7, for
a show at The Belfry, 302 E.
Main Ave. The show, spon-
sored by Sisters Folk Festival
and Preston Thompson
Guitars, also features the
powerhouse duo of Rob Ickes
& Trey Hensley.
The showcase evening
of bluegrass, country, blues
and Western swing starts
with a Thomspon Guitars
demonstration.
Since Frank Solivan left
the cold climes of Alaska
for the bluegrass hotbed of
Washington, D.C., he9s built
a reputation as a monster
mandolinist 4 and become
a major festival attraction
with his band, Dirty Kitchen.

BIRDS: Hard to manage
stand-replacing fires
in forest

broadleaf species, shrubs and
herbs as well as young coni-
fers, and are important habi-
tats for some bird species.
Bird species associated with
these habitats that are show-
ing ongoing declines include
the rufous hummingbird, wil-
low flycatcher and orange-
crowned warbler. For most
of these species, however,
in contrast to birds of older
forests, the declines have not
gotten worse.
Betts said that before
launching into efforts to cre-
ate these diverse early-seral
ecosystems, more informa-
tion is needed regarding how
much of it there might have
been historically in differ-
ent areas, and how sensitive
the associated species are to
reduced habitat.
Phalan emphasizes the
findings show that efforts
to maintain and restore old-
growth forests are working,
but that it9s harder to prevent
stand-replacing fires than to
manage logging.
<It was anticipated in the
plan that species declines
might take decades to arrest,=
he said. <It was surprising,
though, to learn that species
associated with older forests
continued to decline much
faster than those in early seral.
We argue that, because forest
regeneration is an inherently
slow process, and because
fires are going to become
more frequent in most forest
types, forest plans should con-
tinue to emphasize conserva-
tion of old-growth habitats.=
