Dennis Arendt reports:
The Eugene Wednesday birders went to Skinner Butte this morning. We
walked around the top and through the park area north of the butte. Two
adult Bald Eagles were circling above the butte and their nest is very
easy to see both from the top and from the north side. Many trees have
fallen on the butte. Both kinglets were common. A few Varied Thrushes
were at the top and in the grass below the butte. Our complete list
follows.
