A Trip to Malheur National Wildlife Refuge
"I too am not a bit tamed. I too am untranslatable. I sound my barbaric YAWP
over the roofs of the world." Walt Whitman.
We took a trip to Malheur National Wildlife Refuge this Memorial Day Weekend. It was part of the annual Oregon Birders Gatheriing that's been going on for about as long as I can remember. The following is a photo essay of some of the wild things we saw.
Side-blotched Lizard (Uta stansburiana)
Mountain Cottontail (Sylvilagus nuttallii)
Juniper Hairstreak (Mitoura grynea barryi)
Western Kingbird
