I just left Neal Maine and Evan Cain at the shorebird ponds of the South
Jetty of the Columbia, shooting pics at unreal near distances of the RUFF,
and it's companion LESSER and GREATER YELLOWLEGS. Evan will likely post
these later. All birds seemed very tame. They came to us, feeding to within
very short distances. Also seen and heard were SHORT and LONG-BILLED
DOWITCHER, WESTERN and LEAST SANDPIPERS, and one BAIRD's SANDPIPER.
From the jetty, a very large stream of SOOTY SHEARWATERS was flying from
the river bar towards Del Rey Beach. Looked like the main feeding action
was about a quarter mile off the beach in Gearhart area.
