Below is my bird list for the second half of January for Lost Lagoon Farm
(Gillihan Road, Sauvie Island). I identified 49 species. Notable exceptions
were ruby-crowned kinglet and Ring-billed gull. Prior to the snow, these birds
appeared often. Despite much time birding the property since then, there’s been
no sight or sound of them.
