Group Plans To Occupy Oregon Wildlife Refuge Next
Authorities in Oregon may think they are nearing the end of a long standoff as only a few holdouts remain. But the end of one problem could mark the beginning of another, given that a group of radical pigeons intend to occupy the Malheur Wildlife Refuge just as soon as the current protestors leave.
“This exhibition of unrestrained Government aggression will not go unanswered.”
Though they express solidarity with the current occupiers, their grievance is not with the treatment of ranchers, but with the dedication of vast tracts of land to refuges for minority bird species, while god-fearing pigeons are relegated to a hardscrabble urban existence.
“Where are the dedicated sanctuaries for observing us?”

You're too good
Note: not from Malheur, but a great pic nonetheless.
Just like at the refuge, except, even though this is Oregon, no weed in jail.
