Dunbar’s ranch is immediately adjacent to the Malheur Refuge. He had great views of the observation tower. He testified about seeing men with long guns appearing to secure a perimeter. He said he saw, through binoculars, a person in the watch tower pointing a gun in his direction. He described the stressful situation in January, and that he still had to tend his cattle during the calving season. He also said he heard funfire on a number of days


Dunbar's "ranch" is 42 acres. Forty two acres won't support anyone in this day and age. He and his son were each paid $2000 by the FBI from early January until February for access to their property. I suspect the man has a full time job with one of the federal agencies.

Who in their right mind calves heifers in January? Sorta like catching carp frozen in the ice.
