I am sitting at a nice promontory on the N Spit of Coos Bay- a Weyerhaeuser
overlook location. 141 BLACK SWIFTS since 0725, the last 10 right over the
treetops here- so cool! They come in waves one of which was 114 birds.

Also seen earlier at the old Weyco pond site:
1- female YH BLACKBIRD
1- male WILSON'S PHALAROPE
1- LESSER YELLOWLEGS fly-over calling w G. Legs.

Also many A Goldfinches, Cedar Waxwings, and cowbirds.

Gotta leave by 8.

Fantastic morning!
