Nope! This myth has been making the rounds on and off, sometimes based on “true” stories that even in this day and age never seem to have any video or photographic support. A great many birds, from waterfowl to Bobolinks, feed on rice in nature. It is easily digestible. The tradition of throwing

Went to the Wasserman Imports tasting in McMinneville tonight. I haven’t tasted much Spatburgunder (German Pinot Noir). Not bad, but not impressed either. But hey! I had my first Cab Franc from the Loire that had no bret! Cool.

I love seeing them in the wild. When I’ve been close, they tell you to stay back by wacking their tail on the water.

Yeah team!

Electron Dam has been harming Chinook salmon, steelhead, and trout for nearly 100 years. With part of the dam gone, the river will flow naturally for the first time in almost a century.

I would like to thank everyone who works to protect the interconnected circle of life. Watch while the greed tries to weaken or get exemptions from the laws that protect biodiversity. Thank you CFBD & all others. We’re on the same team.

Examples of survivors of the Gorge 2017 fire. The bigger the tree, the higher the chance of being able to survive because of bark thickness. In some of these areas, the undergrowth didn’t survive. Once killed by the fire, the bugs attack and feed woodpeckers. Next, the cavities create nesting sites for birds and other critters. The new Alders are already taller than humans, give it time and the firs and cedars will be pushing up too. Fires are just part of the ecology.

Nice views at Bethel Heights Estate on my Tuesday Wine Tour

Nice recent Malbec tasting. Some very good ones.

If you like “charismatic megafauna” Sauvie Island was pretty cool yesterday. Lots of Sandhill Cranes, Snow Geese, and incredible varieties of other birds. Bring binocs & a scope if you have one.

Frisky Eagles. I can't believe I got these shots.
