Zac mentioned some mushrooms near the canyon residence halls that were sprouting. Quite nice ones!
This in from Zac Perry, Canyon Day guru:
Thanks to all of those that participated this last October celebrating Reed College's oldest tradition Canyon Day. There was food, music, and fun all day long as we tackled the eastern end of the canyon removing non-native vegetation, which then opened this section of canyon up for the reintroduction of native plant species.
Volunteers planted over 1200 native plants on this beautiful day!!
Thanks again to all of you who were involved; see you again April 10, 2010!The great pics below are from Reedie Leslie Zukor!
I ran into Reed biology professor Steve Black on the canyon's blue bridge on a sunny fall day. Steve was out collecting spiders for his research while on sabbatical this year. Nice to be able to do research 5 minutes away from the lab!
A nice summer lunch in the canyon
Here's a shot of a heron in the lake by Reed employee Paige Balter, taken March 6. While she was watching the crane, it had a little afternoon lunch of something in the water (hopefully not any spawning fish!).
