Miscellaneous

I came around a corner, slowing down to look for a station, and there sitting on a branch hanging over the middle of the road was this guy. I think it's a juvenile Red-tailed hawk.













A station in the Clatsop State Forest where recent thinning has occurred.













In areas where owls have been documented for several years at a time, we first do a day hike to try to find the owl before we call the area at night. This eliminates a step if we can find it in the day first. This hike was up a ridgeline and was quite a workout for me as I've been a computer-potato since my fish job ended. =P First is looking up the ridge - Cliff is providing scale.



And this is looking back down the ridge that we had just hiked up.
