Hi Folks,

Last week Wednesday I spent a full day in the Reedsport/Winchester Bay area
of coastal Douglas County (driving and on foot, no boating/paddling). No
real rarities, but 90-something species, a Barn Owl on a metal post in
daylight, a nice group of Short-tailed Shearwaters off the end of the south
jetty (not often seen so close), a couple Marbled Murrelets between the
jetties, a yellow-billed Common Goldeneye (they normally don't have all
yellow bills), all 6 species of Oregon's grebes including quite a few Eared
Grebes, a few shorebirds, one Black-legged Kittiwake, a Heermann's Gull, a
couple Western Meadowlarks near Salmon Harbor boat basin, and a "pair" of
White-throated Sparrows at a good feeder location in Reedsport. I submitted
15 eBird lists for the day, so rather than giving links to each, following
is a compilation of all of them. Photos at
