Greetings all,

I just posted the second installment in a series covering last weekend's Morrow 
County 2020 blitz. It is entitled "Meet the County." It is designed to describe 
the various habitats that can be found in the county and offer a bit of an 
introduction to what you can expect to find if you decide to go birding there. 
Across the northern half of the county the human footprint on the land is 
considerable, but as you move south away from the Columbia River, that 
footprint becomes less obvious. There is a subtle beauty to the grassy rolling 
hills south of Heppner. Birding in the foothills of the Blue Mountains at the 
southern end of the county offers an exposure to species and subspecies that 
are more typical of the Rocky Mountains than the Oregon Cascades.
