[sheila chambers]

LeavesAfter a long absence, the PINE SISKINS are back!

Very glad to see the little beggers.

Also seen today, DOWNY WOODPECKER, NORTHERN FLICKER, CHESTNUT-BACKED and 
BLACK-CAPPED CHICKADEE, ANNA'S HUMMINGBIRDS, HOUSE FINCHES, HOUSE SPARROWS, 
BUSHTITS, GOLD-CROWN, WHITE CROWN, WHITE THROATED and SONG SPARROWS, SPOTTED 
TOWHEE  but no Tim Rodenkirks - yet.

I think the strong south winds kept the Tim Rodenkirks around Coos bay.

I hear the Tim Rodenkirks might be migrating south to Baha California to 
thaw out.

I didn't see any broken BROWN PELICANS here but I did see a small flock on 
Monday at Harris beach and the gulls were playing in the gale force winds 
and dodging the huge waves, in general they were enjoying themselves.
