Hi Folks, I decided last minute (Saturday night) to go over to the S. Jetty of the Umpqua River and join in the fun. I arrived there about 0900 and did three 1-hr watches plus a final 30-min watch. Following are some photos and numbers. I tell you, it was so fun watching all the birds streaming by those 3.5 hours; I'm not kidding when I say it really seemed like 3.5 minutes. Anyway, I was incredibly lucky weather wise, as there were huge squalls/clouds to the north and south several miles. My favorite observations of the morning were: *5 species of "tubenoses" *Several beautiful Sabine's Gulls including two flying south right over the beach. *Two somewhat late Caspian Terns *Red Phalaropes that landed fairly close by *Peregrine Falcon "following" a Surf Scoter flock about 3/4 mile out. *The way the gulls hour after hour came south near the end of the jetty, then used the uplift from the south jetty to cruise west toward the beach, then proceeded south. I had a nearly constant stream of gulls of many species coming right by me. *Just the massive number of birds constantly going by, from within feet of me to as far as I could see west at sea. Some photos of closer birds: https://www.flickr.com/photos/matthewghunter/sets/72157648596060338/ Following is the list of all species observed during the total 3.5 hours of observation, but the numbers are the maximum from any ONE HOUR. And, these are only birds within about a mile of shore, there were many thousands farther out that I could not identify to species, and even these are surely underestimates.
