Why is it when a bee visits flowers all day it is called “essential ecosystem function” but when I do it, it is called “taking PTO”?

This is a great reminder to stay aware while you are hiking, make noise as you go, bring bear spray along, and keep your distance from any wildlife. You can find out more information about bear safety at wdfw.wa.gov/blackbears.

The trails and trailheads at Mount Si, Little Si, and Mount Teneriffe are closed until 0800 June 18, 2026 due to bear activity. We send our thanks to our colleagues @WDFW @KingCountySAR for coordinating the response and safety of recreators in the area.

Our fire team is working fast alongside local crews to help get a handle on this fast moving fire in Spokane Valley. My thoughts are with everyone affected. I’m urging everyone to give firefighters space and stay out of the area.

That's right, -4.3ft tides happening today and tomorrow! Keep in mind that these creatures you see during a low-tide LOVE the camera, but do not love being touched, so explore responsibly!

For that first real heat wave it’s important to remember:
water in you- good and hydrating
you in water- cold and hypothermic

Why's it always "urban forestry" and never "herb and forestry"

We get by with a little kelp from our friends 🎶
Kelp and seaweed in Washington state are collaboratively managed by @waDNR and WDFW in coordination with other land managers and treaty tribes.
