Here is the summary of my morning dogwalks from NW Seblar Terrace to the Pittock Mansion for the week 4/10/14 to 4/16/14. Species neither seen nor heard the previous week (a "short" week with only 3 walks) are in ALL CAPS. Additional information about my dogwalk, including an archive of weekly summaries and a checklist, may be found at http://www.hevanet.com/winkg/dogwalkpage.html The sightings are also in eBird. We did the walk 6 days this week. This Friday, Lillian (the dog) and I will be leading another Morning Bird Song Walk, sponsored by Portland Audubon. The walk begins at 7AM at the Pittock Mansion parking lot and lasts about 2 hours--but you're free to leave whenever you need. Free, open to the public, no pre-registration required.
