Oregon Coast 2024
Nice and cool on the Oregon Coast!!
Here’s a few birds and sea creatures.
I’ll let you gull aficionados give me an ID on these west coast gulls. Hint: 3 species.

Up in oregon now. I’ve heard Dusky, Cordilliran and pacific slope flycatchers by sound and location. Pix have been tough!! Golden eagle fly by yesterday. I love waking and going to sleep to the songs of Hermit and Swainson’s Thrushes. Glad we got up to the pacific NW to escape the heat
Allan and I headed out to Granger area yesterday on our semi-regular NED (Nature Exploration Day). We came across some nice shorebird habitats in wet fields and had 6 shorebird species for the morning. So shorebird season is ON!!! Here’s a few easy-peasy to ID. Didn’t get pix of several distant Am Golden Plover and…
Non-avian denizens of the deep.
Here’s a tip from Mary G. If you’re on the fence about gulls, Amar’s book is a good place to start. And let me know if you want me to teach the gulls class again starting in November. https://press.princeton.edu/…/9780691…/the-gull-guide…
Here’s a few more pix from Kelp chase. Anyone is welcome to ID.
I finally got one!! Two actually, an apparently mated pair. Give me an ID before I give you the location.
