OBOL,
   Was on the beach in north Douglas county today.  Shorebird and gull
movement has been pretty decent the last several days.  There has been a
noticeable movement of RED-NECKED PHALAROPES.  Saw 6 on the little pond
south of Siltcoos on the way out and a singleton working the waves in
Douglas.  Also of note were 2 MARBLED GODWTIS and a RUDDY TURNSTONE (juv)
south of the Oregon Dunes Overlook trail.  On Monday I saw 3 PEREGRINES
between Siltcoos and Tahkenitch, no doubt following the flocks.  There was
a single tern in a flock of gulls and it was a.......Caspian.
