Bob Fields reports an ACORN WOODPECKER in his Coos Bay backyard on Friday.
 I do not know if this species has ever been seen this close to the coast
before in Coos County?  There have only been 5 other records since 1990-
all of which have been in the SW corner of the county near Powers/Mt.
Bolivar.

Lots of BARN SWALLOWS staging on the north spit of Coos Bay lately, had
about 500 two days ago. Most other swallow species appear to have vacated
the premises- time for the big Yamhill Co.Barn Swallow congregation?

Merry migration!
