 What is it?

 It’s the elusive red-tailed squirrel at Locust Street Park!
ENTINEL ERVICE.

According to Wikipedia: 

“The biohazard symbol was developed in 1966 by Charles Baldwin, an environmental-health engineer working for the Dow Chemical Company on the containment products. It is used in the labeling of biological materials that carry a significant health risk, including viral samples and used hypodermic needles.”

 There it is again. 
Of course, when used in relation to zombies, it makes perfect sense.

 These young birds, at least one of which is a grackle, were waiting to be fed last week at Columbia River Park.

 Probably not a good place to be in an electrical storm, though.

STOLEN!

Memorial plaques were recently removed from two benches at Columbia River Park. The plaques had been purchased by families and individuals and were taken within the past week or so, according to sources.
