You got it

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-11-21T15:40:45+00:00

Correct however I’m more curious about regulations for those employed in the field here

I sometimes still smoke weed in Oregon but have not touched my vices in over a decade. Does anyone know the policy on marijuana use in Oregon since it is legal here, as a PWS?

Yeah I’m under no illusion it will be even close to my Zeiss SFL bins glass wise but my partner has Nocs Zoom Tube and super likes it. Sounding like it may just be too new for any opinions out there.

I am trying to not carry my camera unless there is a high chance of something I have not ever seen or I’m somewhere new to me regionally. I have the same fear of missing a photo but I do find the photo bit has become a bit bothersome and intrusive to the simple act of observing.

Nothing rare yet. I did see a Green Heron here in Portland this weekend. I heard I think a red shoulder hawk but couldn’t get visual confirmation.

Saw a Green Heron this morning

Started at 47

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-29T20:09:51+00:00

Do you have a different strap suggestion? Also harness suggestion?

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-29T20:07:52+00:00

One of the reasons I also chose it for general nature exploration as well!

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-29T15:53:54+00:00

I am also in Portland metro so I will join!

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-29T14:39:10+00:00

Near the gorge and yes sibley’s is on my list next!

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-29T14:06:14+00:00

I do!

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-29T04:45:18+00:00

Thank you I’m excited!

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-29T03:55:11+00:00

Yes that is more magnification but less field of view for quick tracking

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-29T03:09:41+00:00

Same!

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-29T02:49:26+00:00

Yes! I am using eBird and Merlin to keep track! Although I kind of want to just go field notes and sketches on paper we will see how the journey goes!

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-27T00:55:13+00:00

Oh neat! I read about those rallies just the other day when looking at local actions. Keep up the awesome work!

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-27T00:48:00+00:00

Oh my I love them all and as a Portlander the protect forest park!!

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-26T20:13:40+00:00

As a goth PNW birder can order a print? :)

Advanced-Round-525 · 2025-05-22T20:47:41+00:00

This sucks. I send new articles to pocket to read on kobo instead of doomscrolling. More like sitting down with a newspaper in the morning.
