A Canada goose mama leads her six goslings into the water for the first time - straight down. Soon after they hatch the goslings jump from their nest 25 feet above the water, but it's OK, they're supposed to do this and don't get hurt. I'm not sure which one is more adorable, the one doing a belly flop, the one going down sideways, or the one going down head first.
The photographs were taken by Jake Bonello at the Julia Butler Hansen Refuge for the Columbian White-Tailed Deer in southwestern Washington State.

Snowy Plovers And Persistence
I didn’t come to Oregon to find Snow Plovers, but once I was near them and knew they existed, I had to find them and add to my 2026 goal of finding 500 species.
It’s not exactly ‘Snowy Plover Season’

📰💡 Oh, look! Yet another #newsletter that thinks it's cool to combine #microwaves and #megawatts for a history lesson nobody asked for. 📚🚫 Spoiler: Instead of making the Columbia River interesting, it made me wish for a power outage. 💥🙄

Dredging the #ColumbiaRiver at the expense of tribal and aquatic communities
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has transformed the estuary and robbed the river of sediment over the last century.
Josephine Woolington June 1, 2026
"Grand Ronde’s elected officials said they were not consulted during planning for the proposed dredge project, George said. In a written statement, the Corps did not acknowledge this but said that it is committed to “conducting robust, meaningful government-to-government consultation with all federally recognized tribes.”#Riverkeepers #WaterIsLife #Chinookan #ChinookNation #Oregon #KellyPoint #PNW #WashingtonState #YakamaNation #CRITFC #IndigenousFoods #RiverPlants #ChinookSalmon #ColumbiaRiverkeepers #ColumbiaRiverBasin #nativeAmericans #NativeAmericanNews

It's a whole lot of can kicking and subservience to corporations. We consumers are having to deal with higher energy costs due to decisions made by few people in largely rural counties.

Finished up attending a state preparedness conference this last week. The keynote speaker who has a PhD in '#AI in #EmergencyManagement'. What entailed was a nearly two hour-long ad for ai and robots. The what now feels old shtick of 'if you don't hop onto the planet-burning bandwagon, you'll be left behind. Robots will run shelters and do all #SAR.'
