To everyone in OBOL land, I am finalizing teams to cover the January 3, 2015 Coquille Valley CBC. Our circle centers in Bandon and stretches inland to the Coquille area so we have quite a variety of habitat. We have averaged around 150 species in our 16 counts. Most of our team leaders are back so you will find plenty of experienced birders with knowledge of their assigned areas to work with. A primary need at the moment is someone to do a seawatch. We do not have spectacular venues like Boiler Bay, but we do not want to miss some species that may fly by. If there is someone out there that does not want to spend an entire day with us but who may be interested in getting involved with that aspect only, we could use your set of eyes.
