Well, some of the older tenants of this place say there are beavers, so I am wondering if this odd sound I have heard only a few times is a beaver. It is after dark or at dusk, and it is a sort of trilling sound. Something tells me it is not a bird, but it is closer to bird than other animal sounds I know. One time some people across the way were taking pictures of whatever it was but I could not see from my angle. I tried to find otter and beaver sounds but nothing sounded like this. I am an Oregon native so I am curious about this. Oh btw, I totally agree with the sentiment in this blog. the host of Locus Focus heard someone say that this part of town has the most affordable water front places and that is so true. Adversity thankfully forced me onto my bike last Summer and one time a few blocks S of Tacoma I found that little park on Tenino. Ive always noticed that Sellwood is gentrified safe zone form the dreaded working class that is cut off from the other classes by 39th, the train track no mans land, and all the golf courses and Rhodedendron gardens, and Reed College or course. I work across from the OLCC, with a bunch of desperate working class types and we take breaks on a lawn that surely had a buried stream as there are mushy areas around tall aspen trees.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
