Field Notes: a Northwest nature blog
One of the reasons many of us live in the Pacific Northwest is the natural wonders that amaze us all. On this blog Seattle Times writers and photographers will share their explorations of the natural world from snowcaps to whitecaps.

Take a look: A new online Encyclopedia of Puget Sound
Have a look at the new Encyclopedia of Puget Sound. A trove of scientific papers, species information, news, maps and photos, it's a new online product published by the Puget Sound Institute, a cooperative venture of the U.S. EPA, University of Washington and Puget Sound Partnership.
This northern red-legged frog is just one of the many species profiled in the species library tab in the new encyclopedia, which offers a trove of information, images, scientific papers, and food for thought.
