small.

Three juveniles on private land near McKenzie River. Young still unsuccessfully hunting and being fed by adults.

Low spot in the dunes, probably a freshwater pond in the winter but dried out by mid or late summer.

Any chance this is B. repens? At Young's Rock.

Heard 2 owls singing back and forth (audio #1). Later heard one chittering (audio #2), then observed 2 owls mating. One left and one entered a hole in the tree (images #1-3), then resumed the song.

It lumbered across the road right in front of my car and then watched me from nearby just long enough for me to get a picture.

I think this is var. compositum because of the angled junction of the side and outer pinna margins, but the plants are so small that it is difficult to say with certainty. Elevation about 5000 ft.

Saw this on the Latourel Falls trail. I'm not sure if they are the same weasel, but I assume they were at least of the same family since they came out of the same burrow.

Fledgling, accompanied by an adult (separate observation):

I've not been back to the site so I don't know whether it is still extant. The habitat is still intact but deer browsing may be an issue.
