Birded the North Coast today with Jack Kiley and John Elizalde, all in Clatsop 
County.  

At Silver Point several bunches of Brown Pelicans, quite a few Red-throated 
Loons, several small tight flocks of shorebirds .... all flying north.  

At Necanicum Estuary 19 Black-bellied Plovers, scattering of Dunlin in mostly 
alternate plumage.  At Stanley Lake 6 Greater Yellowlegs.  

Along Sunset Beach very few Sanderlings in mostly basic plumage, small number 
of Western Sandpipers in complete or nearly complete alternate plumage.  Along 
Wireless Road a quite satisfying flock of 120+ Whimbrel with 4 Marbled Godwits. 
 

All along the usual Savannah Sparrows (some are migrants with a lot of yellow 
in the face), Yellow-rumped Warblers, Orange-crowned Warblers, the 
White-crowned Sparrows are singing, a few leftover Golden-crowned Sparrows, 
Barn Swallows in good numbers, Bald Eagles everywhere.
