Here is the summary of my morning dogwalks from NW Seblar Terrace
to the Pittock Mansion for the week 09/13/12 to 09/19/12.
Species neither seen nor heard the previous week are in ALL CAPS.

We did the walk 6 days this week. 

Tomorrow, Thursday, Sept 20, Lillian (the dog) and I will be leading
the third of six weekly Pittock Fall Migration walks.  Meet at
7AM at the Pittock Mansion parking lot.  The walk will last about
2 hours, but you're free to leave whenever you need to.  Walk is
free and no registration required.
