Bickleton, Washington is called the Bluebird Capital of the world because of the thousands of bluebirds that spend most of the year in the area. The majority are Mountain Bluebirds with a few Western Bluebirds in or near the forest. Although quite small
(population 90),
there are interesting events and places in or near town. Bickleton is home to the states oldest tavern, The Bluebird, and the states oldest rodeo.
The next Pioneer Picnic And Rodeo will be the
101st annual. At the picnic and rodeo grounds is one of the west's oldest carousels. A 1905 Herschell-Spillman. It is set up and used only on rodeo week-end, which is always the second week-end in June. It was purchased from Oaks Park in Sellwood, Oregon in 1929 and moved to Bickleton. Just 11 miles south of town
is the Whoop N Holler Ranch and Museum where there are many interesting local antiques and old vehicles.
