[obol] Coos Birds 1/1-2/2007

[Tim Rodenkirk]

Late afternoon on the 1st, at the very south end of
the N. Spit of Coos Bay, I found a 1st winter GLAUCOUS
GULL.  This was probably the elusive bird that was
seen twice the week before before the Coos Bay CBC
(including the day before the count) but not on the
actual CBC.

On the 2nd I saw one of Barb Griffin's CLAY-COLORED
SPARROWS which have been coming to her feeder in North
Bend for a month or more.  Also, I put seed down at
Millicoma on the 2nd and the HARRIS' SPARROW popped
right out.  I then checked on the COMMON YELLOWTHROAT
that Russ Namitz found on the 18th of Dec. north of
Simpson Park in North Bend and it was still around
too.

Happy New Bird,
Tim R
Coos Bay
