American Alligator (Alligator mississippiensis)Observer
ekoberleDescription
Spotted on bank of cattle pond and then scurried into the water. No fencing or containment.
Note: To clarify, all signs indicate this is either a
- Uncontained pet on private property
- Deliberately abandoned pet
- Escaped pet that has managed to travel to this location (if this option, not likely to have travelled far due to rural setting with few homes spaced 1/4mile to 1 mile+ apart and scarce water sources)

Coast Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens)Observer
mkmcDescription
Perhaps to most interesting redwood in this natural area. Age perhaps 10 years or less. This tree is just one of dozens of very young redwoods spread over a 4.5 acre area. The trees are spaced in a manner to suggest they were not planted by a person but instead seeded naturally from the two larger redwoods in the vicinity. I do not know if this is common in Wa state.
