Goodspeed Rd in North Tillamook always was a reliable raptor road in 
the winter, until about 4 years ago when they ceased to appear. Today 
we went down there and found the following.

2 Pergrines
1 Kestrel
2 Redtailed Hawks
3 Whitetailed Kites
2 Redshouldered Hawks

One of the Redtail Hawks ws being very agressive, it made a dive at a 
flying peregrine feet extended and the Peregrine had to jinx away, it 
then started chasing the 2 Red Shouldered Hawks. They flew around 
very noisily. We got a very good look at them sitting in the same 
tree with the scope one was an adult the other a juvenile. Hopefuly 
this is a sign of a good raptor winter.
