WOODLAND — Biologist Dave’y Lumley paced the shallow water at the mouth of the Lewis River on an overcast morning late last month. With each step, she carefully scanned the water in front of her, holding two hockey sticklike probes just under the surface.
“My mind goes blank on everything else and what I’m looking for is any slight movement,” Lumley said.
