Hello All,
The reality on the ground is that many native bird species here in the Columbia Basin are dependant on Russian Olive. I am in the midst of writing an article on our observations over the last twenty years here in the Lower Columbia Basin. I will list each species found in Russian Olive and how they utilize this introduced tree. I will be submitting the article to the WOS Newsletter for publication.
Later Mike
