NEW RECORD, NEW DISCOVERIES, OLD DAMS

Oregon Public Broadcasting (OPB) recently interviewed Oregonian Noah Strycker who’s set the record for most bird species seen in a single year…over 6000.

OPB is also broadcasting the first video seen by the public of a newly discovered slot canyon in the Mt. Jefferson Wilderness.  It was an accidental discovery by a helicopter crew fighting a forest fire.slot

There’s also been a newly discovered arachnid species living in the Cascades.

And there’s good news for the natural world along the Klamath. Four dams are about to go.
