In and around this quaint town, wildlife romps throughout nature as if this aging steel town didn't exist. Living in the middle of Albany these days, are many herons, geese, squirrels, hawks, and you name it- we got it.

Driving across Albany last week, I saw steel workers picketing a lock-out, and I saw otters at Freeway Lakes. And a mink at Talking Water Gardens. I could on...






Along the Dave Clark Riverfront Trail, one can stop at DeLuxe Brewery for a beer and a cheese sandwich from a variety of rotating food cart vendors. An osprey nest less than fifty yards away is visible and within earshot.






















In the west part of Albany, the rivers dominate. The Calapooia and the north-running Willamette host a large variety of nature scenes and beautiful wildlife. The Dave Clark Path runs through downtown, following the Willamette as it meanders widely across town.

In the east, lakes are the city's waters here, with Wavely Lake and Grand Prairie Lake being among the most popular. Further east, Timber-Linn Memorial Park has a large bass pond that is home to Canada Geese and American Widgeons.
