Oregon Coast

Went to Newport to celebrate 38th anniversary.. Tried not to spend too much time birding. Les went along with me looking for the Gray Catbird that had been reported behind the Hatfield Marine Science Center. With help from Wayne Hoffman and those on OBOL we found it Sunday Morning and I was able to get a few shots of it. For me it was a thrill. Les actually found someone he could talk trucking with. All and all it was a good week-end.

Gray Catbird






First saw one then two arrived together. There's much talk on OBOL about the fact that they may be nesting there. They think there may be two adults and at least one young. I'll be going back at the end of Aug. so I'm hoping they'll still be there. My Brother is coming up for a visit and he will want to go over to the coast.

Had a great time and the weather was great.
