NOTES AND QUOTES for a Tuesday in the Napa Valley:

PHOENIX, Arizona — Personal note: I have been going to spring training in Arizona since 1996. Early on, it was only for a week or two. Since my wife, Jan, and I began spending our winters in Arizona a few years ago, I’ve been here for the duration.

This has been a busy week for me, with turkey hunting almost every morning. We have been lucky in as much as we have seen and heard turkey on every trip. I mainly wanted to call in birds for my partners. My son, Guy wanted to take a turkey with a bow. He managed to get off some shots, but the turkey won this first round.

BILLINGS, Mont. -- The government's call to remove federal protections for grizzly bears in and around Yellowstone National Park has sparked sharp debate among some of the country's leading bear experts, who are divided over whether the bear population has recovered enough.

BIG SUR -- For the first time in more than a century, California condors have been spotted nesting in the northern part of the state, scientists said.
