First Post

Hello - and welcome to the very first post on the Nature of Portland! 

My intention is to focus my posts on three major topics:

• native plants of the Portland area
• native animals of the Portland area
• profiles of parks and other green spaces where the Nature of Portland can be observed

I'll also include local news items, events, and other things relevant to, or having an impact on nature in the Portland area.


For any Flickr users our there, or anyone interested in nature photography - check out the Nature of Portland Flickr group.  Join the group and share your snapshots of the local nature scene.

Thanks, and enjoy!
