Swallows take over under the bridge

Cliff swallows have taken up residence at various points under the Veterans Memorial Bridge.  The birds have been nest-building there over the past few weeks. Cliff Swallows traditionally build nests on cliff faces but have adapted their skills to bridges and other structures and feed in areas near water.













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.

Gargoyle sighted at St. Paul's Episcopal

Not to be outdone by the carved grotesques of Notre Dame Cathedral, a miniature gargoyle has taken up residence above the bell tower of Saint Paul's Episcopal Church on the 300 block of Locust - and this one is moveable.
