On February 13th, 2025 the Nehalem Bay Watershed Council will be hosting both a Board Meeting and a presentation by Gordon Reeves titled “New Insights Into the Ecology and Freshwater Habitats of Pacific Salmon and Implications for Conservation.”
The NBWC’s Board Meeting will start at 5 pm at the NCRD in Nehalem and online via Zoom. We will discuss regular business, financials, and council activities. The public is welcome to attend and learn more about the NBWC’s current and future habitat restoration projects!
After the board meeting, Dr Gordon Reeves will share insights from his career studying freshwater salmon habitats. This talk will discuss the diversity of life-history strategies in salmon and how that diversity impacts the productivity and persistence of populations of the different species. It will also address the growing recognition that freshwater habitats are much more dynamic than has been previously recognized. It will end with a discussion of how conservation efforts can recognize this diversity and dynamic and incorporate them into the development of policies and practices which have better chances of success.
Dr Gordon Reeves is an aquatic ecologist with expertise in the freshwater ecology of anadromous salmon and trout, conservation biology of those fish, the impacts of climate change on aquatic ecosystems and associated biota, and aquatic aspects of landscape ecology. He has a PhD in Fisheries Science from Oregon State University and worked as a research aquatic ecologist for the US Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station in Corvallis for 38 years! Since retiring he has continued to research aquatic ecology on the Copper River Delta, Alaska and develop options for aquatic research on the proposed Elliot State Research Forest. This is an opportunity to hear from an expert on salmon ecology who has been actively participating in growing our understanding of salmonids for decades.
Both the Board Meeting and the presentation will be at the North County Recreation District in Nehalem and hosted on Zoom, and are free to the public. The zoom link is us02web.zoom.us/j/85257362427 or on the Faceboook event at www.facebook.com/nehalembaywc. You can also contact the watershed council at info@nehalemwatershed.org.

Friends of Netarts Bay, Watershed, Estuary, Beach and Sea (WEBS) is thrilled to introduce a new program to our lineup highlighting local Community Science projects!
During this virtual event, guests will learn about different research projects, how volunteers are helping with data collection, and the outcomes from these efforts. “Participants will hear about five community science projects happening in and around Netarts Bay that are enhancing our understanding of the local environment through collaborative, participatory efforts” says the new Stewardship Coordinator for WEBS, Marina Dreeben. “We hope anyone interested in getting involved and learning about the impacts of this work will join us to hear from the leaders of these projects.” WEBS Director Chrissy Smith added “We have been eager to have the opportunity to share with the community the outcomes of different community science projects and the ways our volunteers and other local residents are working together to grow a stronger understanding of this amazing ecosystem.”
Open to current volunteers and the general public, this event is for you if:
You are generally curious to learn about new findings.
You are involved in community science in the Netarts Bay area and want to learn about the impact of your work.
You have never heard of community science but want to learn about new ways to support the ecological health of your area.
You want to know what’s new with the birds and marine debris locally and along the Oregon Coast!
Sharing at the event include representatives leading the following community science projects: NOAA Marine Debris Mapping Project, Coastal Observation and Seabird Survey Team (COASST) Beached Bird Survey, Bird Alliance of Oregon Snowy Plover Patrol, Bird Alliance of Oregon Black OysterCatcher Monitoring, and the USFWS Seabird Productivity Monitoring Project.
WEBS just launched a new page on their website to help connect individuals to different community science projects. You can find out more by visiting the “Get Involved” page or by directly linking to netartsbaywebs.org/community-science.

I created this video, which I hope to god you can access, to explain what I do:
https://youtu.be/_3ESd-jWm2U?si=W8EBB42ktTPQxWzW
To build anything, we need to understand our materials and methods, right? In writing, we can either rely on our “ear” to tell us what sounds good, or we can develop a clear knowledge of good style.
For 5 years I directed the English Department Writing Center at the University of Washington, where I taught writing pedagogy and literature. I’ve used that experience to build my one-to-one syllabus.
Shoot me an email and we’ll go from there!
let’s tell it like it really is. please read this post AND watch the 2-3 minute video.
well, now that i’ve copied and pasted this message, the link to the video didn’t come through. if you want to watch it, perhaps you can do a google search and find it.

Lucile W,
Trump is trying to take credit for Biden’s economy. Don’t be fooled.
In 2017, Trump inherited a strong economy from President Obama and never stopped congratulating himself for it. He repeatedly made claims such as, “We created the greatest economy in the history of the world!”
Rubbish!
In his first administration, Trump tanked the economy with his trade wars and botched pandemic response.
Now, Trump has inherited an even stronger economy. Under Biden, over 16 million jobs were created — more than during any single presidential term on record. Unemployment was a low 4.1 percent. And wages were rising.
Under Biden, the American economy grew faster than the rest of the world’s, and faster than the pre-pandemic Trump economy.
Take a look at our new video to shore up your arguments when you hear more of Trump’s unwarranted brags! Then share it with friends to help get the facts out.
WATCH & SHARE
Yes, the United States and every other country had to deal with inflation, but Biden brought inflation down below 3 percent — lower than most other countries.
Americans have every reason to be outraged at decades of policies that prioritized corporations over people. But the Biden Administration cracked down on corporate price-gouging, monopolization, and trickle-down nonsense.
Some of the most important Biden initiatives will only start to pay off during the Trump presidency (assuming Trump doesn’t reverse them).
The Biden Administration took on Big Pharma by capping out-of-pocket drug costs for millions of seniors on Medicare, and lowered the price of 64 drugs — changes that will take place throughout 2025. And more drugs are scheduled to get cheaper in the following years.
Biden’s infrastructure law will give us better roads, bridges, public transit, and broadband access. The CHIPS and Science Act will provide more American-made semiconductors. Biden’s clean energy initiatives will pay off in the future with greater fuel efficiency and less pollution.
I hope you’ll watch and share this week’s video, and add your thoughts in the comments.
His whole life, Trump has taken credit for things he inherited, starting with his own personal fortune. If he doesn’t wreck the economy with his crazy tariffs or cruel deportations (or even if he does), you can be sure he will take credit again for something other people built.
Don’t let him.
