I think you made the right choice, and hopefully you'll be able to find a Pacific Golden Plover in Oregon.<br />Two heads up notes: first fall Sharp-tailed Sandpiper was just found in Coos Bay, Oregon, today. Also, the Shorebird Festival is next weekend on the southern Oregon coast, so something good will hopefully be found.Vjera Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00962874729725270858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3916447777056971449.post-33285693898030562872014-09-02T08:05:47.831-04:002014-09-02T08:05:47.831-04:00Great nab on the puffin.

Getting too far ahead might pose a bit of a pacing challenge at times during the next two months.<br />Maybe try for some modest additions while you are still in Oregon: White-fronted Goose (see yesterday just north of you at Necanicum estuary, wetlands around Portland, Eugene, etc.), Sooty Grouse, Red-breasted Sapsucker, Hermit Warbler, and Purple Finch. Mountain Quail, well maybe, but it's widespread further south.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3916447777056971449.post-64795846143172405912014-09-02T02:35:49.452-04:002014-09-02T02:35:49.452-04:00Huge salvage, and amazing documentation given the ...Huge salvage, and amazing documentation given the conditions.
