Sayre Greenfield and I saw one on Netarts Bay in 1968. That’s the sum total of
my coastal Sandhill Crane records.

Lars,
On the county lists found on the ECAS website each species can have one of
three designations. "S" indicates the species is a statewide rarity. "C"
indicates a species is a county rarity. Everything else has no designation.
That means a species that has more than 5 sightings in the history of the
county is not-S, not-C. On the 5-point scale, a species could range from 1
(abundant) to 4 (hard to find in a given year.) I used the word "regular"
as shorthand for that broad category.
For example, in Yamhill County Sandhill Cranes are darn hard to find. I've
seen them only twice. Here's what is in the records kept by Tom Love and
Carol Karlen over the years:
Sandhill Crane 4
1 McMinnville 12 April 1999 [CK]
8 McMinnville 21 Feb 2004 [CK]
27 Airport Rd 22 Feb 2005 [CK]
6 over Newberg 4 March 2007 [CK/PS]
juvinile Senior Center McMinnville Dec-Mar 2005/06
10 over Dayton 11 Feb 2006 [FS]
Grand Island 5 Nov.2012. [CA]
CK - Carol Karlen
PS - Paul Sullivan
FS - Floyd Schrock
CA - Chris Adlam
I agree that they are darn hard to find in Washington County. I lived there
20 years and saw one Sandhill Crane.

"Regular{ in Clatsop and Tillamook Counties? That would mean annual to me.
Where are the datapoints?I flat out don't believe it. "Regular" in
Washington County? I was one of the most active birders there for a decade,
and a fulltime resident for two decades. I detected the species exactly
twice in thirty years. i'd call them "casual" or even "accidental". Lars
