Yesterday before the heavy afternoon rains we checked out the Prescott Beach 
area near the Trojan PGE Park in Columbia County. The Graham road to Prescott 
Beach traverses a very interesting wetlands/ huge flooded area. Many many swans 
with juveniles. The swans were flying and calling as they flew. It was easy to 
tell the difference between the Trumpeters and the Tundras based on voice in 
that situation.

Other birds of note— one Peregrine in the cottonwoods, some Ring Necked ducks 
and there were Common Goldeneyes off the beach in the Columbia. Otherwise 
relatively quiet. We did not walk the woods around PGE park area which might 
have yielded more birds— the rain and Arctic front arrival did not make that an 
attractive option compared to birding out of the car.
