 |

 |
| 3 Black-Throated Gray Warblers at the same time! This was a yard record for us. Normally, we only get one at a time. |
 |
| This Orange-Crowned Warbler flew in through the garage, then through the kitchen and into the living room. He landed on a plant near the ceiling. It took us a while to get him to fly back out. This was 2 days after a Steller's Jay did the same thing. |
 |
| 7 Band-Tailed Pigeons in our backyard. They are frequent visitors to our yard. |
 |
| This Band-Tailed Pigeon obviously thought he was a House Finch. He kept trying, though. |

| We don't think the Evening Grosbeaks liked sharing, but no body seemed to want to speak up |

We were really glad we stopped! This is a Horned Grebe in breeding plumage just off of the dock.
There were actually 5 or 6 Horned Grebes in this area.
Here is a Common Loon in the same area. There were 6 of these birds, as well.
A small flock of Black Turnstones. This is the only photo we got but they are another life list bird for us!
A Red-Necked Phalarope. There were 2 of these little guys feeding just as you entered the spit.
A view of Tillamook Bay.
Another great find for us was this Red-Breasted Merganser. Yet another life lister.
Yellow-Rumped Warblers abound!
You couldn't look left or right without seeing a Yellow-Rumped Warbler.
Another Western Gull posing (read: begging).
