All fresh dispatches from the green and brown and blue world all around. News carried on the wind from the frontlines of wildness, reports from the underground trail-roads, investigations of human-animal-plant relationships.

Watcher in the Woods
Early morning encounter in the Coast Range... This Saw-Whet Owl was actively claiming territory, at first in a fairly casual way, more emphatically after hearing my poor imitation poo-poo-poo-poo call. Holding still on a branch in a thick regrowth of Douglas-Fir, the owl stared at me in disbelief, before flying up into the thicker branches to spend the day away from the Chickadees who were already coming around to inspect this nemesis of theirs.
