Eagles attacked the Murre colony at Yaquina Head Lighthouse and they mostly
abandoned nesting but stayed around in the water. I saw about 8 Murre
chicks on North Whale Rock before the lighthouse deck was closed due to
painting. The Murres would pile up on Colony Rock once in awhile but did
not stay to nest.

I was happy to see Murre chicks in the Yaquina bay today. There was a
feeding frenzy on bait fish around 4:45 pm today. It was difficult to
count birds because of the weather. However, I definitely counted 6 Murre
chicks, each with a parent. I have a couple bad photos on my eBird list.
I haven’t been following them this year. Can someone please tell me how
they are doing?
