Field biologists will conduct inland forest surveys for a threatened seabird, the marbled murrelet, on private and government-owned forest lands in western Oregon (Roseburg and Grants Pass areas). Some positions may also involve assisting other nearby wildlife survey projects. These positions are full-time seasonal from mid-April to early August 2023, full project duration commitment is necessary. Marbled murrelet experience is not required if candidate possesses basic bird ID skills and strong field skills.
