Good grief, could this weather be any more dramatic?
We go from the mid to upper 70s today to the mid to upper 40s in just 48 hours! Time to bust out the puffier of the coats.
Snow levels fall quickly -- we'll see some snow mixed in w/rain.

Leave behind leaves and pine needles, brush piles, and plants that have gone to seed to help promote wildlife success in your yard through the winter months! #wildlifehabitat#leavetheleaves#yardwork
Consider wildlife safety in your holiday decorating plans! Fake cobwebs, twinkle lights, and other hanging or dangling items can cause entanglement issues with wildlife such as birds, rodents, and deer.

Many generous people have been asking how they can support Oregon's wildlife right now. Central Oregon is in critical need of rescue and rehabilitation resources for birds of prey, including eagles, hawks, owls and falcons.

While difficult, these restrictions exist because #oregon wants to prevent harm to our treasured bat populations. The bat did not make it, but we appreciate the homeowner's concern, compassion and interest in the bat's welfare and understanding why we couldn't rescue the animal.
This young big brown bat fell from its roost in a Sunriver homeowner's roof. Unfortunately, we are not allowed to intake bats right now due to #COVID19 restrictions. (1/3)
Common misconception: “COVID may have come from a bat in China, therefore all bats are bad." These restrictions exist bc little is known about this virus and potential for spread. North american bats are already extremely vulnerable and in decline. (2/3)
