Malheur, 2019


A ranch not far from Malheur's headquarters
Three years ago, here in eastern Oregon, there was a poorly designed cast at Malheur headquarters. Badly informed, badly prepared, armed men came here from other states and created a stalemate that lasted about 6 weeks. One of them was shot dead, several were serving short sentences, and the others got away scot-free. The damage that has been done to both the country and the community is slowly healing.



Buena Vista overlooked
This is a place that John and I really appreciate.


A flooded field, private land
It's wide open. At this time of year, both the refuge and the surrounding private land are home to thousands of migratory birds. We saw hundreds of ibises. They nest in the Great Basin of Oregon and move to Mexico when winter approaches.

The Great Basin is a powerful place and you shouldn't rely on your cell phone to work. You need to put the phone down and watch the melting snow fill flat spots. We saw probably 10 species of waterfowl here.


Mostly it's high desert, sage brush everywhere.


Look up! See the swallows. They have a nest in this tree.



At Benson Pond
If you are a careful observer, you will see other nests. A great horned owl, perfectly camouflaged.


Benson Pond
There is an abundance of water now, but only for a few precious weeks.




Near the Krumbo Lake
The ancestors of the Paiutes were here long ago.



On Coyote Butte
Here and there you might find a flower.


Krumbo lake
If you know what you are doing, you can catch a trout and few will be noticed.



Above the Krumbo reservoir
There are millions of newly hatched mosquitos in the sky above the sage brush and the water. They'll only live a few days, just long enough to find partners. They hum but don't bite. What beautiful, harmless little lives. I think it's a perfect existence.
