[obol] Basket Slough and Finley

[Keith Owen]

I met my brother and Don Southerland at BSNWR this morning to look for the 
Emporer Goose.  We didn't find it.  However we did find the flock of HORNED 
LARKS on Livermore Rd.  There were several SAVANNAH SPARROWS in the flock 
along with a couple LAPLAND LONGSPURS and a couple AMERICAN PIPITS.  We also 
found the WHITE-TAILED KITE that has been hanging out along Livermore Rd.

We looked for the Gyrfalcon at the Corvallis airport and struck out again, 
but did find two EURASIAN WIGEON males with a flock of AMERICAN WIGEON at 
Finley.  There was also an American/Eurasian hybrid with the flock.  They 
were between the old house/weather station and the restrooms in the series 
of containment ponds on the east side of the road.
