Subject: Clatsop County NAMC preliminary results

With one group still untallied the count sits at 102 for the
day. Todd Thornton and I spent our day at Coxcomb Hill, the
SJCR and the Necanicum Estuary our day total was 98 species.

Harry Nehls added 2 species from SJCR and Steve Warner's
partial list brings the preliminary total to 102.

Most notable were 8 WESTERN SCRUB JAYS at the Neawanna Wetlands
in Seaside (the furthest south they've been seen in the County).
We also got to see a MERLIN take a BARN SWALLOW at the Astoria
Mitigation Bank.

you must also be right.
