Black-billed Magpie (Pica hudsonia)Observer
leapyDescription
Tail, wings & bill size & shapes match magpie, but colouration was white & pale grey. Head was dark grey & eyes & bill black. Maybe a pale variant? Is that possible?

The pictures are very unclear. It doesn’t quite match any of the suggestions, which included phalaropes in general. I know there’s been a red-necked phalarope in the area, but those pictures don’t feature the same dark mark on the neck as I see here.

Any way to tell if this was a person or wild animal? There are warning signs of cougar active in the are. I wasn't able to find any evidence of fur in the cuts.
The highest point on the tree was about 7 feet. It was taller than me but easily reached with a hatchet.

jeffhardingDescription
This location seemed inappropriate for a pika, in that the edge of the lava flow was heavily grown in with vine maple.

Chewing on western juniper; completely girdled base of tree. I didn't know they ate juniper. Or might this be another animal?
