[obol] Tillamook Bayocean brief

[Carol Cwiklinski & Steve Small]

Several new species were on the spit yesterday. Caspian terns (7) on the bay side, and a merlin streaking north. Also on the beach, nestled in the rocks exposed on the sand, 400-500 mixed flock shorebirds. Most were least sandpipers, also western sandpipers and a few dunlin. They seemed to resting in the camouflage of the rock, and didn't easily flush. At the surfline, 200 ish sanderlings with a few dunlin.
