Tualatin River Wildlife Refuge - June 18, 2024

Chemeketans Pat Fuhrman, Jean Hutchinson, and Susan Proffitt joined leader Becky Hickox on a perfect weather day for a walk around this refuge near Sherwood.  The flowers were putting on a real show as was a family of nutrias including two babies.  The songbirds were vocal and a bald eagle was soaring--a really nice day.  (And kudos to Susan who fought a major emergency shutdown on I-5 both to get there and get home!)
