Wildlife Program Weekly Activity Reports

These weekly Wildlife Program reports summarize the current activities of our field and headquarters staff. They are arranged by our four goals: 1) Conserve and protect native fish and wildlife; 2) Provide sustainable fishing, hunting and other wildlife-related recreational experiences; 3) Use sound business practices and deliver high-quality customer service; and 4) Maintain a highly skilled and motivated workforce. They are also arranged by our five divisions: 1) Game, 2) Wildlife Diversity, 3) Lands, 4) Science, and 5) Outreach; and by our six regions: 1) Eastern, 2) Northcentral, 3) Southcentral, 4) North Puget Sound, 5) Southwest, and 6) Coastal, including Wildlife Areas within those regions. (Reported activities will not necessarily reflect every goal, division or region each week.)

Range cleanup: Last Sunday a local 4H group spent several hours cleaning up the Methow shooting range! They did a spectacular job and we are deeply appreciative of their efforts, especially with the upcoming 49ers and Memorial Day weekends on the way.

Dusky Grouse: Dusky grouse breeding display behavior is in full swing during Spring. Birds can often be viewed at a fairly close distance. Any unit of the Methow Wildlife Area with a mix of shrub-steppe and ponderosa pine habitat is a good bet for viewing opportunities.
