Third bobcat sighting since fall on my Beaverton Beaver Cams. In this clip, it crosses the culvert under Barnes Road — the same tunnel I’ve seen beavers, nutria, a mink and other small mammals swim through #Bobcat #Beaverton #TrailCam #urbanwildlife #spypoint #wildlife #portland

A pigeon inhales water from a Portland Benson Bubbler during a face-off between rival protest groups on Saturday, Aug. 17, 2019. It was a tense but relatively uneventful standoff that drew national attention — and one very hydrated pigeon.

Was a calm evening at #PortlandICE Sunday evening. Got creative — cars turning from Macadam onto Bancroft, headlights streaming into though the main ICE gates. #NoTripod #ICEProtest #PortlandProtests #WarRavagedPortland #OperationInflation #InflationNation #CostumeProtest

An out-of-control, pajama-clad crowd in lawn chairs, armed with coffee and doughnuts, gathered outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) building in South Portland on Sunday for the Portland Pastry and Pajamas Protest. Two people were even throwing a frisbee.

Set the trail camera back up in the backyard last night in SE Portland. This raccoon stole the show by untying an old rope in its path and re-tying it out of the way. youtube.com/watch?v=La9NHE9x…

Portland resident Taylor Hatmaker was among those evacuated from Timberline Lodge Thursday night: “It’s emotional seeing something so emblematic of our state with such history on fire. It’s such a historic, special building,” she said. oregonlive.com/clackamascoun…
