[obol] Wed morning, Spencer's Butte

[Larry Mcqueen]

We took the (probably last) dry opportunity to climb Spencer's Butte (So.
Eugene) before mud.  The rains begin tonight.  The only birdlife on the bald
top was a flock of juncos.  We did have GRAY JAYS and a PYGMY OWL at about
the half-way point on the south-to-eastside trail.  The rest was in the flat
area near the start of the trail.  It was cold.
