Hello, this is the Audubon Society of Portland Rare Bird Report. This report
was made Thursday August 2. If you have anything to add call Harry Nehls at
503-233-3976.

Shorebirds movements slowed during the week with the first juveniles
arriving. GREAT EGRET numbers are now increasing west of the Cascades.

On July 25 a YELLOW-HEADED BLACKBIRD was in Seaside. A CALLIOPE HUMMINGBIRD
was seen July 26 in Vancouver. On July 28 a BLACK-CHINNED HUMMINGBIRD was in
Vancouver. A group of six BLACK SWIFTS were seen July 31 over Mt. Tabor Park
in southeast Portland.

On July 29 six BREWER¹S SPARROWS were in the farm fields along Belts Road
south of Brownsville; one is still being seen at Fern Ridge Reservoir. A
female BROAD-TAILED HUMMINGBIRD was at Malheur NWR Headquarters last
week-end. 

That¹s it for this week.
