The August Stewardship weekend was a great success! Nine volunteers spend 80+ hours over a day and a half preparing Sod House Ranch for its annual open season and tending to needs at Refuge Headquarters.

The native fish in the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge have been isolated since the Pleistocene or around 11,000 to 13,000 years ago when glacial lakes subsided in the now closed basin. This provides a significant amount of time for the native fish isolated in these waterways and springs to adapt to the habitat conditions of the area.

This internship has been truly transformative and such a phenomenal learning opportunity. I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who contributes to the Friends of Malheur program which makes my position possible; it was wonderful getting to meet many of you this summer!
When I first saw the exquisite photo by Dan Streiffert on the Friends of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge Facebook page I was mesmerized.
