It seems like spring has finally sprung in the Pug It seems like spring has finally sprung in the Puget Sound region! We hope everyone was able to get out and enjoy the lovely weather over the past few days. We certainly enjoy when we can get out and do some fieldwork in the sun. Here’s to more sunny days soon.

Can you recognize this tree by its bark? The Pacif Can you recognize this tree by its bark? The Pacific Madrone (Arbutus menziesii) has a distinctive orange to red bark that tends to peel in large strips. Interestingly, it is in the same plant family (Ericaceae) as both blueberries and rhododendrons.

Thinking of sunnier days outside with beautiful pl Thinking of sunnier days outside with beautiful plant species. In these photos, wetland ecologist Will Hohman checks out an endangered western lily (Lilium occidentale) within a wetland in southwest Oregon. Western lilies were listed as federally endangered in 1994. In their most recent five-year review of the western lily in 2019, the US Fish and Wildlife Service indicated that luckily this species can respond favorably to management activities.

Can you spot the bird sounds from their waveforms? Can you spot the bird sounds from their waveforms? Part of Raedeke Associates Inc.’s spotted owl monitoring involves the use of songmeters. These devices are scheduled to record sound automatically throughout specified times each day. This data can be brought into software that analyzes the sound files for a particular target species. The first image is the “bouncing ball” call of a western screech owl. The second is the slow and steady hooting of a flammulated owl. The third image is the vocalization of a great-horned owl, which can be heard throughout North America. See if you can ID the last one. Hint: It’s another owl species.

As seen on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s As seen on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s National Wetland Inventory Mapper, the Discovery Park area is a great example of how many types of wetlands can exist on a property in the Puget Sound region. Within the area pictured are Estuarine and Marine, Estuarine and Marine Deepwater, Palustrine Freshwater Emergent, Palustrine Freshwater Forested/Shrub, Freshwater Pond, Riverine, and Lacustrine wetland areas. While this is not an exhaustive list of all types of wetlands that exist in the region, it does show the diversity of critical areas that should be assessed for before a project begins.

English ivy (Hedera helix) is a highly competitive English ivy (Hedera helix) is a highly competitive, non-native plant that can quickly take over a forest. The added strain of climbing ivy vines on trees can hinder growth and cause damage, and trailing ivy can prevent other native ground cover from establishing. Although it can look attractive, if you want to give native plants the best shot at survival, controlling non-native plants, such as ivy, is your best bet.
