Unless I'm mistaken, this is a Washington County first.  Anyone disagree?
If you want to see complete checklists for all Oregon Counties (or if you just want to print off a day list without all the rarities), go to http://ecbcbirds.org/birdingoregon/CheckLists/tabid/162/Default.aspx and print away.

Scott, you are right. This certainly isn't a Marbled, which is a great Washington County bird. This a HUDSONIAN GODWIT.

Thanks, Steve, for the detailed directions.
I saw a godwit there that I believe to be a breeding female HUDSONIAN GODWIT. I put four heavily cropped images online at http://bit.ly/1aoB4EF
I also briefly saw an potentially interesting Tringa at the same location.

    Leslie Meserve, Michael Screen, and I saw a Marbled Godwit,at
    Jackson Bottom today, Sunday May 26th, at about noon. We had
    excellent views and watched it feeding for 15 minutes in the same
    spot. I am including a link to a satellite view of exactly where
    we observed the bird.
