I definitely second that emotion, Harv - even though I was born in Germany, I
have
lived here for the better part of the last 25 years, and I certainly
consider myself an Oregonian first and foremost ... hey, my Oregon state
list beats my Germany list by well over 100 species :-)

Once an Oregonian, always as Oregonian! Especially if you were born here!

The aphids here were extremely obvious. You could stand by the lower branches
of the tree and see hundreds of them.
And not second home, please. Oregon is my only home, though I concede that I
am spending some time in Colorado in search of filthy lucre. I am moving back
to Oregon at Ch ristmas (probably by way of LaGrande) and after that will be in
Oregon three weeks out of four, give or take.

Jack mentions cold weather coming, last Yellow-throated Warbler I saw was in
Boise in a Dec. It was in low 20's as highs, it hung around a pine tree along
the Boise River for many days.
Wonder if there are aphids in the pine at Ankeny to keep it happy, as Alan C
had with his bug and warbler infested tree in his second home in CO.

I love stakeouts - you see people you haven't seen in awhile, and you often

a nice takeaway on a day that fell short on producing high quality images of a
rarity. I am nevertheless very excited to have come away from this chase with
three diagnostically adequate additions to our life-photo-list.
The only location the bird was found while I was in the area was the front yard
of a personal residence located about a quarter mile due n.w. of the overlook.
Good luck! It seems like there is a good chance this bird could be around for
awhile - that is of course if it is able to tolerate the approaching unusually
cold weather.
I am now wondering if the homeowners are aware they are hosting a celebrity
bird; if not, they might appreciate a knock on their door explaining the
respect ful milling about of people with binoculars, scopes and cameras.
