Location: Scoggins Valley Park, Washington County, Oregon


Birded Hagg Lake today from 1000 - 1330 hrs with David Crisman.

The many warblers at each stop highlighted the trip, including a
single YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT heard calling from within a clearcut
below Scoggins Valley Rd.  

Other neat birds for David and I were the numerous EVENING GROSBEAKS
that flew over us at nearly every stop, as well as the several HOUSE
WRENS observed in the clearcut off of Scoggins Valley Rd.
