SCRATCHPAD

To public artists: Thanks for letting us judge you By ERICK BENGEL

I’m trying to imagine what it would be like to write this column with several dozen pairs of eyes on me — scrutinizing my expression, second-guessing my word choices, judging my abilities. Would I block them out, or treat myself to a nice public meltdown? During the last two weekends, I attended Cannon Beach events where artists had to do that very thing: Craft something in full view of murmuring spectators. First came the Sandcastle Contest, where teams set out to build impressive, yet delicate, sand sculptures while thousands of visitors

streamed by (not to mention judges — of whom I was one — taking notes and assigning scores). And on Sunday, at the Plein Air & More arts festival, painters, sculptures, ceramicists and others plied their trade outdoors amid throngs of opinionated onlookers. I asked Mike Rangner, an oil painter and guest artist at Bronze Coast Gallery, how he can even concentrate in a setting where his process is analyzed as much as his product. “There is a little bit of insecurity when you first start any event,” he said. “You always feel a little bit of insecurity.” It helps, he said, to show up with a work-in-progress, so that most

major decisions have already been made. Later, I asked Michael Orwick and Anton Pavlenko — featured artists at DragonFire Gallery — how they got over their stage fright. “Alcohol,” Orwick joked. They, too, came prepared with small-scale versions of their planned paintings to use as a jump-off point. Every year becomes less nerve-racking, they said. But the anxiety is still there, a faithful friend that can be more or less audible. “Sometimes thoughts creep in like, ‘What if this goes horribly wrong?’” Pavlenko said. “And paintings do, all the time,” Orwick added.

That’s the real fear, right? Not that people are watching, but that we will lose the moment, stumble, and people will judge us. What if this pile of sand looks nothing like a singing porpoise? What if I completely botch this beachscape of Haystack Rock? Judging the work of people who put themselves out there is an easy and necessary pastime, and — let’s be honest — a fun one. We lay down our standards and dock points when those standards aren’t met. Human nature. But here’s to the people — from artists to athletes to city councilors — who know this and choose to work in public anyway, who let us watch them make mistakes in real time, who are brave enough to let us judge them.

TRAVELING IN THE GREEN LAND PART 2

By DAVID CAMPICHE FOR COAST WEEKEND

This is the second installment of a twopart series about the author’s recent travels in the Northwest. The first column explored Seattle; this column focuses on British Columbia cities Vancouver and Victoria.

S

ome people consider travel the ultimate adventure. Crawling out of Seattle’s morning traffic, we headed north to Vancouver, British Columbia. One shouldn’t confuse travel with getting there. The transit was fierce, but for our aggravations, we would be well rewarded. Vancouver is a nexus of immigration, a city bursting with some of the finest Asian cuisine in all of North America. The metropolis is bursting with people from many diverse cultures and nationalities. It is a colorful city. It is relatively large. In a major city crowded with restaurants, even the smells taste good! Our neighbor to the north, like the U.S., has a history of attracting immigrants seeking new opportunities, a chance to get ahead and/or secure safe asylum. This makes for a very diverse and colorful population.

Vancouver

Any visit to this silver-hued city (it was foggy and raining on arrival) must include the exploration of the Native American collection at the University of British Columbia. The collective tribes of the Canadian coast produced (and still produce) art work of world distinction. The carvings, generally from tight-grained cedar trees, are remarkable in scope and craft. They throw my imagination into cartwheels. The university’s collection is large and magical. Hundreds of masks and totems and silver-carved jewelry of bears, eagles, whales, even frogs, caress the imagination. Plank longhouses and sleek cedar canoes and loads of historical information line the halls of this museum. The next day, a walk down Hornby Street exposed the Vancouver Art Museum and the Bill Reid Gallery of Northwest

PHOTOS BY LAURIE ANDERSON

LEFT: Looking down Hornby Street in Vancouver, British Columbia, one can glimpse the water and mountains through clouds that flank the city. RIGHT: Viewed from any angle, the Parliament buildings in Victoria, British Columbia, are an imposing structure.

Coastal Art, fine shops and cuisine, and a tea house around the corner on Georgia Street that surpassed our expectations with the grand cru teas and one of my favorite meals ever. The Vancouver Art Museum had a show of more than a hundred pieces from the contemporary Coast Salish artist Susan Point. Here is a woman in her prime, a force representing her people and an inspiration for all artisans. Her works weave together past, present and future. Also featured and running until Dec. 3 is an extraordinary collection of Emily Carr’s called “Into the Forest.” Carr is a local treasure, a woman forever linked to the fertility of nature and love of Native peoples. Aside from all the art and Mario Corsi’s divine pasta (Red Lion Bar & Grill in West Vancouver), there remain thousands of galleries, Chinatown, exploding markets with fruits and vegetables, meats and seafoods, shops galore, fat with consumables. There is a colorful, exultant and defining aquarium situated in lovely Stanley Park, a Garden of Eden in a city surrounded by 2.5 million human beings. This city is seductive like a dangling salmon lure. And so blew by two happy days. Had it been three, my stomach would never have survived.

Victoria

Through the Gulf Islands, we traversed by ferry, trundling through waterways both narrow and expansive and always captivating, painted on this day with broad swaths of quicksilver and gilded spume. In the midst of urban sprawl, Victoria, British Columbia, remains a sweet city. We arrived by water, were surrounded by water, and two days later, left by water, feeding our wayward souls with good pub food, East Indian delights (Masala Bites), and healthy veggie cuisine at Rebar. We ate an impressive plate-lovely breakfast at the stately Empress (though felt that the famous tea was overpriced) and, later, ladled in mouthfuls of gelato on Government Street. The second morning merged into the basket of delights at Buchart Gardens. Don’t miss it. Here are ideas to be carried forward for decades. No matter what time of year, this garden amazes. Never to overlook is Victoria’s Royal British Columbia Museum. No museum has exhibited more elegantly the contribution of artwork and culture of these First Peoples than this provincial museum. I have personally visited here more than a dozen times

and never failed to grow my appreciation for a culture that nearly disappeared into the Canadian mist. Today, the force and talent of these First People will continue to inspire us.

Appraisal

Vancouver and Seattle are clogged with humanity. Victoria is smaller and more intimate, but ultimately will face many of the same challenges. As deserts expand in Texas, Arizona, New Mexico and southern California, folks are beginning to follow the water. Witness Astoria, the new darling of the Columbia-Pacific region. I, too, have seen my world change, some for good, some for bad. The question remains: What will be our future? The great Haida artist, Bill Reid, left a towering legacy. His namesake gallery on Hornby Street in Vancouver is a revelation and joy, and his words are inspirational. Reid was an optimist, who, in the time of desperation, carried his people on his back. Such leaders are rare, but consistent with history and time. Revelations come to those who dare to have them. Get in your car and travel north-bynorthwest. CW

SEASIDE — Celebrating 13 years in 2017, Seaside’s next First Saturday Art Walk will take place 5 to 7 p.m. July 1. Visitors meet artists, see original art, sip wine and snag appetizers by favorite restaurants and personal chefs, view artist demonstrations, and enjoy live music performances. The event is free and is all about seeing and selling art in the galleries and boutiques located between Holladay Drive and Broadway Street in the historic Gilbert District of downtown Seaside. Complimentary parking is on the corner of Holladay Drive and Oceanway Street. SunRose Gallery 606 Broadway St. Seaside artist Robin Montero will be our featured artist with her fiber collages of both wet felting and needle felting processes. A self-taught artist, she is not afraid to experiment and unites her artistic passions of painting, sculpture and beading into one form, often with a touch of whimsy. Also featured will be her original line of art clay jewelry she romantically calls “Atlantia.” Montero’s background is in professional theatrical costume design. Also in attendance will be popular upcycle mixed-media artist Patty Thurlby and SunRose owner-artist Cathy Tippin with her broken china and stained glass creations. Fairweather House and Gallery 612 Broadway St. Opening reception for “Waves,” an exhibition featuring resident artists Victoria Brooks, Linda Fenton-Mendenhall and Ron Nicolaides, and introducing Jim Young and Karen Lewis. Brooks paints in oils to capture landscapes and emotional moments of people in natural settings. Fenton-Mendenhall, a lifelong resident of Clatsop County, offers fresh perspectives of the fleeting moments of waves and the whisper of the sea. Nicolaides has mastered the mesmerizing translucent waves in his depiction of luminous seascapes.

Young, a fishery biologist for the National Marine Fisheries Service, and later a research scientist for a U.S. Department of Energy national laboratory, uses photography as documentation, illustrating articles written for a website and publications. “My aim as a photographic artist is to capture images expressed in nature that would be forgotten if not recorded permanently after the events have passed,” he said. Lewis has a lifelong relationship with water. She grew up kayaking, swimming, and snorkeling. She tries to capture the many moods of water, and her sweeping brush strokes express fluidity and color in motion. Naturalist and biologist Neal Maine will speak at 6 p.m. about the ecology of the local habitat. Shirley 88 will play live music. Moxie 609 Broadway St. Moxie features exclusive jewelry and art; everything is handmade. As a member of the Fair Trade Federation, Moxie demonstrates a genial and equitable approach to conducting business. Moxie is a fabulously fun store with the heart of a lion. Art in the Loft Gallery at Beach Books 616 Broadway St. Beach Books proudly presents two uniquely talented women artists from the Portland Metro area, Eliat Avivi and Elina Zebergs.

Encaustic (wax) art by Elina Zeberg at Beach Books

Avivi was born in France and lived in Iran, Turkey, the Netherlands and Israel before moving to the U.S. in 2014. Creating art is a major force in her life. The colors, rhythm and feelings of the places she has lived inform her work. Zeberg’s favorite medium to

work in is oils and encaustic, yet, as an architect, her brain likes to work in watercolors and colored pencils. Each artist has found her place in the art world through different pathways and different backgrounds, but both share a deep love of artistic expression. Bold. Daring.

T Anjuli Gallery 7 N. Holladay Drive “Billy Lutz, owner of the gallery, is a magnificent artist. His works transcend pure aesthetics and delve into the abstract realm of the metaphysical to evoke an intense spiritual and intellectual response,” wrote Amy Kiefer, a freelance Gilbert District reporter. “In the true spirit of his paintings, Lutz eclipses his physical limitations through his fathomless ardor for philosophy,” Kiefer continued. “Afflicted with retinitis pigmentosa, a hereditary degen-

erative eye disease, Lutz continues expressing his brilliant theories through poignantly conceptual art.” Seaside Coffee House 3 N. Holladay Drive Featuring Marcus Lundell, an artist who utilizes a traditional reverse glass painting technique on distressed windows, as well as new and vintage picture frames to create his unique images. His window views include comedic characters. His witty perspective brings a modern, urbane touch to his folk art medium. All funds from sales are donated to charitable organizations on the Oregon Coast.

Fireworks will light up Seaside skies on the Fourth of July

F

or 28 minutes, the skies in Seaside will be ablaze with the annual Fourth of July fireworks show on the

beach. But what does it take to plan for Oregon’s third-largest fireworks spectacle? “Well, we choose the music a whole year in advance,” pyrotechnics specialist Larry Kriegshauser said. “Then programming the music and the fireworks together probably takes about 60 to 80 hours.”

JUNE 29, 2017 // 11

Continued from Page 10 Kriegshauser has been the wizard behind the curtain of the Seaside fireworks shows for more than 17 years, and has been designing shows across the country every Fourth of July since 1970. In addition to fireworks, Seaside’s Fourth of July celebrations include a performance from The Oregon Crusaders — Oregon’s only World Class Drum and Bugle Corps — a parade and a social and silent auction. When he starts designing the show, choosing the music is the bedrock upon which everything else is built, Kriegshauser said. This year it will be a collection of music composed by John Williams, famously known for his “Jaws” and “Star Wars” scores. When choosing the songs, Kriegshauser looks for a variety of dynamics. “I look for points of crescendo, as well as mellow and smooth moments, which would translate into blue and green fireworks,” he said. “But that’s like asking an artist to describe how to paint a picture. “But I suppose that’s what we are kind of doing — we’re painting the sky, with music.” While much of the work leading up to the show is meticulous and labor-intensive, at 74 Kriegshauser still gets excited to see the shows he creates. “When you’re finished, and you see thousands of people yelling and screaming about something you did, it’s a drug — the only drug I’ve taken,” he laughed. “You just made 40,000 people have a very enjoyable evening, and that’s why I’m involved.”

Catching up with the times

But before 50,000 expected spectators can enjoy the show, the Seaside Chamber of Commerce works with city staff, public works, volunteers and donors to make sure the show is funded and safe, event organizer Brian Owen said. This year, Owen said they are $5,000 shy of their $50,000 goal with about one week left to go before Independence Day. While in the past the show has been mostly corporately sponsored, this will be the first year where the Chamber will start a GoFundMe page to raise more communi-

ty donations, Owen said. “I think we need to catch up with the times. Lots of people want to contribute to the community, and doing it this way makes it easy for both to donate $5 or $10, or for a company sponsor to donate as well,” Owen said. This year, the Chamber is expecting about 30,000 to 50,000 spectators — a lower estimate than in previous years when turnout has reached 100,000. Independence Day falling on a Tuesday this year is probably the reason for it, he said. While this is Owen’s first year organizing the festivities, he has been in the area for four years and has grown to love the event, regardless of size. “My favorite place to watch is on the promenade between Avenue A and First Street,” Owen said. “I love seeing the faces of families light up with excitement — that’s what this day is about.” CW

IF YOU GO 11 a.m.: Parade begins at 12th Avenue and Necanicum Drive, turns right on Holladay Drive, down Broadway Street, across to Columbia Street, then back to Necanicum Drive. 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.: Social and Silent Auction. Games, food booths, cakewalk and Bingo will be held at the Seaside Museum & Historical Society. 2 p.m.: The Oregon Crusaders will perform on Broadway Field. 10 p.m.: Fireworks show begins at the turnaround. Music with the show can be heard at KSWB Radio Clatsop 98.1.

The 2015 Seaside Fourth of July Parade, organized by a volunteer committee, produced a plethora of spirited individuals, vehicles and floats, all intent on celebrating Independence Day in style.

Sliced Beet Salad

Oyster Po Boy Sliders

Tuna Melt with Yoshida Teriyaki Chicken Salad

Gearhart Crossing’s brewpub dabbles in personalizing the predictable Review and photos by THE MOUTH OF THE COLUMBIA MOUTH@COASTWEEKEND.COM

I

n late March, the long-running Gearhart Grocery became Gearhart Crossing, an all-ages restaurant and pub. But vestiges of the market remain. There are deli cases filled with meats, pasta salads and sweet treats. There are baked goods, beer coolers and coffee, as well as a smattering of produce, crackers, household items and so on — essentially a “best of” the bygone grocery store. The remnants of the market ring the brew pub, like a business nested within a business. The pub is walled in from the sundries, creating a more relaxing inner space. The windowless pub is made mostly of reclaimed materials. It’s an uncluttered, mostly blank slate. Tables of mixed designs are scattered about before a gleaming, natural wood bar and beneath glowing flat-screens. The menu is composed mostly of sandwiches, burgers and other upper-scale pub grub like nachos and wings. And while I have certainly whined about the unending prolif-

eration of burger and beer joints on kinds of fruits, veggies, meats and the North Coast, the Crossing’s batheir own coleslaw, I was vexed sic offerings seem to make sense in that the Po Boys came “dressed”downtown Gearhart. As it is, they’re style (with lettuce and tomato, raththe only game in the downtown area er than pickles and slaw). As it was, (one of two) where you wouldn’t the oysters had a satisfying bread-y feel like a total slob if you showed crunch while remaining almost up in a tank top.

I longed for some signature on Now, of course, I chose slaw as the Oyster Po Boy Sliders ($12) a side dish and eventually comappetizer. At a place that pickles all bined the two. Which, in a way, is

fine, though it robs you of a side. At Gearhart Crossing, there are a few options for accompaniment. While you won’t find fries (or anything else that requires a deep fryer), most dishes include a choice of chips, potato salad or slaw. For a dollar more you can upgrade to one of the deli case salads. During my trips, that meant mostly varieties of pasta salad — weighty, picnic-y dishes that are good for sharing. There was also a bit of greenery, like the broccoli-bacon-apple salad which, while dressed, was unappealing in its big-headed rawness. None of what I tried, neither the Yoshida Teriyaki Chicken Salad (with taut cabbage, clipped ramen noodles and chicken in a slippery-sweet teriyaki) nor the Shrimp Macaroni (with green onions and celery) made a distinctive mark. But were I in need of extra protein and carbs after a busy day on the beach, they’d do the trick. Nevertheless: The extra dollar to get in the deli case buys significantly more food. And at the Crossing, that’s no afterthought. While no price is quite offensive on its own, they stack up quickly. Two drinks, two burgers and tip could easily approach $50. It’s

Gearhart. We get it. The Sliced Beet Salad ($11) — with softened, almost gelatinous, roasted, marinated and thinly sliced beets, along with blue cheese, hazelnuts and a mix of greens dominated by frisée — is no more than the sum of its parts. I appreciate that the Crossing gets its beef from Reed & Hertig and grinds it fresh for burgers. The Loaded Steak Dip ($14) resembled different sandwiches in different bites. Sometimes, with a lot of cheese and caramelized onions, it approached a cheesesteak. Then there were earthy, dark oils, laden with mushroom, or the zip of sharp, briny peppers. The beef, cut thin, stacked about an inch high, was so tender and juicy as to almost render the accompanying au jus obsolete. The sandwich was — as much of Gearthart Crossing’s offerings are — prepared precisely, with ingredients of above-average quality. And while there are a few flourishes, certainly a few more wouldn’t hurt. CW

CANNON BEACH — The Tolovana Arts Colony will present a free children’s concert, featuring Chata Addy and the Susuma band, in Cannon Beach’s downtown city park 2:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 4. Born and raised in Ghana, Addy’s bright, lively, upbeat and joyous music — dubbed “Afro Reggae and Funky Highlife” — is rooted in West African rhythms. “The performance will be danceable, energetic and engaging,” organizers said. Chata Addy is the nephew of Obo Addy, recognized as a pioneer in sharing African-influenced “worldbeat” throughout the Western world. Chata, as well as Obo, has performed and recorded with the renown bandleader King Sunny Ade. Since settling in the Pacific Northwest some 40 years ago, Addy has maintained his uncle’s legacy, sharing African music throughout the region.

RiverZen offers free ‘stretch and restore’ workshop for military personnel ASTORIA — The RiversZen Yoga and Resistance Stretching Studios is offering a free stretch and restore workshop for military personnel, past and present, 7 p.m. Tuesday, July 11, at RiversZen Studios in Astoria (399 31st St.) on the Riverwalk. The workshop requires a ID DD214 document or military ID. Participants can bring one guest. Veteran Marine Corps Staff Sergeant Christopher Gibbs and his wife, Kimberly — a veteran instructor

at RiversZen Studios — are honored to be teaching this workshop designed to provide relief from body pain developed through military service. Together they will guide participants through resistance stretches that will not only stretch muscles but strengthen them, helping to restore the body, reduce tension and ease pain, organizers said. Attendees will also be given a worksheet and link to videos that will help them continue with self-care at home. Gibbs knows from

personal experience how powerful and healing these techniques can be, according to a release. “Ki-Hara Resistance Stretching is widely utilized by professional athletes and everyday people alike,” organizers said. “It doesn’t matter if you are injured or an athlete, this class is designed for you!” Space is limited. RSVP by calling 503-440-3554 or emailing info@riverszen. com. People can register at riverszen.com/workshops-2/.

Closing the gap in the Oregon Coast Trail Goal is to get hikers off busy highway shoulder By DAN HAAG

FOR COAST WEEKEND

C

onnie Soper loves the Oregon Coast Trail. She has hiked it numerous times, written a book about it and shared her experiences with fellow hiking enthusiasts. Now, she is spearheading a project to close a gap in the trail between Neahkahnie Mountain and Manzanita. The goal is to get hikers off the shoulder of U.S. Highway 101 and away from busy traffic, especially during the summer season. Soper’s first trek along

the trail ran over a stretch of three summers. As she made notes and took photos, she formulated plans for a detailed guide, which would become the book “Exploring The Oregon Coast Trail,” published in 2015. “When I got more serious about writing the book, I realized I was going to have to hike it again,” she said. The logistics of planning to hike the trail played a huge part in her decision to parse the book into a series of day trips rather than one long trek. Soper avoided about 10

percent of the trail, and that was by design: There are a few gaps in the trail that wander onto narrow highway shoulders. “This trail is 40 years old, and there are about 45

to 50 miles out of almost 400 that are not finished and require people to walk on the highway,” she said. Soper is adamant that trying to enjoy the Oregon Coast Trail while avoiding log trucks and RVs is neither scenic nor safe. “In its present state, people have to decide whether they are willing to walk along the highway with traffic flying by,” she said. A perfect example is the gap at the base of Neahkahnie Mountain where hikers must walk along Highway 101 for 1.25 miles. Soper has put in years of legwork talking to agencies such as Oregon Department of Transportation and Oregon Parks Department in an attempt to rectify this issue. After hours of meetings and reams of grant application materials, there is light at the end of the tunnel. The new trail connecting Neahkahnie Mountain to Manzanita will run on the east side of Highway 101, and will likely cross at Manzanita Avenue. “It’s a link: the mountain, to the town, to the beach,” Soper said. A designer for the trail

has been selected, and Soper hopes design work will commence in June. “If everything falls right, breaking ground on the trail could begin this summer,” she said. Northwest Youth Corps will be handling construction. There are still a few hurtles before the trail can become a reality: The state Department of Transportation has to issue a permit, and there may be easement issues with Tillamook People’s Utility District. There is also the issue of who will maintain the trail

once it is in use. Issues such as keeping the trail clear of brush and fixing erosion are concerns. For this, Soper has reached out to Trailkeepers of Oregon, a Portland-based nonprofit, and is working on a possible adopt-a-trail program with local organizations. Still, after years of dreaming and planning, Soper is confident the pieces are falling into place. “I’ll be the first to admit, the little link we’re doing here won’t be the most scenic,” she said, “but it will keep people safe.” CW

Come for either a roughly 6K walk/run, including the Kwis Kwis Trail, or run a half-marathon course on the Fort to Sea Trail. Both courses will include long hilly sections. The routes are not accessible for most wheelchairs or strollers. No pets are permitted. The run will begin at 9 a.m. at the Fort Clatsop replica; the fort’s wooden gates will be the starting line. The finish line will be in the Fort Clatsop Picnic Area, where a prize drawing and refreshments will be held. Registration runs 8 to 8:30 a.m. at the Fort Clatsop Visitor Center. The cost is the purchase of a $20 Annual Park Pass that grants entry into all three Lewis & Clark Trail Series Events. Registration is

free with any pass that allows entry into national parks. Participants younger than 18 need a parent or guardian to sign the registration form. This event is sponsored by the Lewis & Clark National Park Association, which supports park education and interpretative activities. The third event is scheduled for Sept. 30. The series includes “several different exhilarating events along beautiful trails through forest landscapes, complete with a welcoming and friendly race atmosphere,” organizers wrote. “This series is open to walkers and runners of all ages and provides the opportunity to experience the Northwest coast the way people have done it for thousands of years — on footpaths.” For more information, call the park at 503-861-4414 or visitnps.gov/lewi, or find the park on Facebook.

Go ‘Behind the Bar’ with Heritage Museum art collection ASTORIA — An extraordinary collection of artwork is the subject of the latest exhibit at the Heritage Museum in Astoria. “Behind the Bar: The Folk Art of Arvi Ostrom and the Snug Harbor” features a fraction of the more than 10,000 drawings, paintings and carvings created by Astoria’s prolific folk artist and saloon operator Arvi Ostrom. Many people may recall Arvi’s Union Town tavern the Snug Harbor and his “drawings,” but few could imagine the breadth of his work and talent. “Upon Arvi’s death in 1994, his grandson Ken Carlson became the caretaker of this vast collection. He has endeavored to

preserve his grandfather’s legacy and to share it with the public for the first time,” the museum said in a release. “He, with the aid of his friend and documentarian, Ben Saboonchian, has produced a great video

about Arvi and his art.” Clatsop County Historical Society is a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to preserving and presenting the history of Clatsop County Oregon and the surrounding area.

BALD EAGLE By LYNETTE RAE McADAMS FOR COAST WEEKEND

N

ative only to North America, the bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is found throughout Alaska and Canada as well as in scattered locations across the contiguous United States and Mexico. The largest true raptor on the continent, it boasts a wingspan up to 8 feet in length and weighs an impressive 14 pounds. With a preference for residing near large, open bodies of water, where the fishing is

good and the weather mild, this famous bird of prey feels right at home along our coastline, where it is a common and welcome sight year-round. Easily identifiable by its distinctive brown body and snowy-white head and tail feathers, this precision predator flies through the air at 35 mph, making vertical dives at up to three times that speed when on the hunt for food. Rather than flapping its wings for propulsion, it soars on thermal vectors generated by solar air currents, thereby

using only one-twentieth the energy required to pump its enormous wings. In the wild, bald eagles have an average lifespan of about 30 years. At sexual maturity, they pair off with mates who become lifelong

partners, sharing almost equally in the tasks of nest-building, egg-hatching and chick-rearing. Typically, each nesting pair has one chick per year, but sometimes two and, very rarely, three. As a species,

H. leucocephalus is prone to siblicide, so if multiple chicks do hatch, they compete fiercely against one another, with the dominant chick often starving the weaker one, or simply tossing it from the nest. Used by the same mating pair from year to year, who add to it and make small renovations each spring, bald eagles construct some of the largest nests in the world, building entirely with sticks and then lining the inside with soft grasses and moss. The biggest nest ever found, located in St. Petersburg, Florida, was almost 10 feet in diameter, 20 feet deep, and weighed close to 4,000 pounds. Owing to its beauty, strength, longevity and native birthplace, the bald eagle became the official bird of the U.S. in 1782. At that time, it was estimated that almost 500,000 specimens lived in North America. Prized by some and considered vermin by others, they were heavily hunted. By the late 1800s, the species was

in decline. In 1940, the Bald Eagle Act was passed, and under federal protection, populations started to recover. Simultaneously, however, pesticides were introduced for use in agriculture, entering the food chain at the lowest level. The toxic compounds, especially Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), made eagle eggshells so brittle, they would break during incubation. By 1963, continental populations had fallen to 417 nesting pairs. A ban on DDT in 1972 saw eagle numbers rise almost immediately and continue through the following decades — so much so that, in 2007, the bird was safely removed from the Endangered Species List. But make no mistake: Bald eagles are still heavily protected. Under federal law, it remains illegal to possess any part of the bird, dead or alive, including feathers, eggs and nest materials. Exceptions are made for Native Americans, who, with special permit, are allowed to use the emblems for cultural ceremonies. All others, if caught, face fines of up to $100,000, as well as possible imprisonment. CW

Taut crime novel has many layers Black Heron Press is a serious literary press that exists out on the outskirts of Seattle. For a couple of decades now, it has published novels, nonfiction and poetry volumes that, in one way or another, examine the underbelly of the American promise of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Author Leonard Chang is one of Black Heron’s great finds. New York-born, Harvard-educated, and now making a living as a screenwriter in Los Angeles, Chang’s first novel, “The Fruit ‘N Food,” won the Black Heron Press Award for Social Fiction and was published in 1994. Since then, the press has published several more of Chang’s books. The latest is a crime novel called “The Lockpicker.” The title character is Jake Ahn, who lives in Seattle. He works by day in a restaurant and in his off-hours as a professional thief. Against his better judgment, Jake teams up to do a home
