Here on the northern Oregon coast, we've been moved from zone 8 to 9.
But, got to zone 8 temps in December 2013.
I'll still take risks, but every few years, or decades, watch out.

This news story has a different edit that includes the sound of the shots fired, again, captured by a tourist to the Maya site.

Palm poachers kill police officer
Palms are a fun hobby for us, but they are a deadly serious matter in some places. Many of you know I spend time in the rainforests of Belize, for my own research on wildlife and to help with an effort to deter poachers who steal macaw nestlings for the international trade in rare parrots. Many of t...
