Here is the summary of my morning dogwalks from NW Seblar Terrace
to the Pittock Mansion for the week 10/23 to 10/29/08. Species in
ALL CAPS were neither seen nor heard the previous week (10/2 to 10/8).

Additional information about my dogwalk, including an archive of
weekly summaries and a checklist, may be found at
