I'm guessing that I am the first person back from Malheur this
Memorial Day Weekend. So, I will place the rare stuff I know
onto the line:

5/27/94
HEADQUARTERS
Gray Catbird
Blackpoll Warbler
Blackburnian Warbler
Northern Waterthrush (this one was very friendly, I got to
see it)
FRENCHGLEN
Summer Tanager

5/28/94
HEADQUARTERS
Eastern Wood Pewee (calling continuously,1st state record)
American Redstart (at least 2, a third showed the next day)
Rose-breasted Grosbeak (one of several reported from various
sites the only one seen by many)
Northern Parula (singing male)

FIELDS
Black & White Warbler

5/29/94
HEADQUARTERS
all the good stuff from yesterday was still there

I left the refuge at about 10:00am, because Astoria is a very long
drive and we like to break up the trip. We stopped at Sage Hen
Hill Rest Area just west of Burns for lunch and there, working
the junipers was an EASTERN PHOEBE. I left a message at the
Frenchglen Hotel Sunday night and one at the headquarters Monday
morning. I hope it got through to other folks. Please let me
know. And let's come up with some consistent method for
communicating back and forth off the refuge.
