Here is the summary of my morning dogwalks from NW Seblar Terrace
to the Pittock Mansion for the week 04/01/10 to 04/07/10.  Species
neither seen nor heard the previous week are in ALL CAPS.

We did the walk 6 days this week. 

This Friday, Lillian (the dog) and I will be leading a Morning 
Bird Song Walk at the Pittock Mansion.  These walks, sponsored 
by Portland Audubon, are free and begin at 7AM at the Pittock 
Mansion parking lot.  The walks last about 2 hours, but you're 
free to leave whenever you need to.  For more information, see
