There are many wildfires consuming Washington and Oregon right now ~the closest one to me is the Willamina Creek fire which is a 212+ acres and is only 15% contained.

This is about an hour's drive from me, and the winds shifted last night which is blowing all of the smoke NE into the Portland-metro area. The smoke gives me a headache and the sun is hazed....
If your a fellow PacNW resident and have issues with smoke, please stay inside and turn off any AC units that pull air in from outside. Also, keep your birds inside as smoke can be extremely detrimental to their sensitive respiratory systems.
Stay safe everyone!
