Well I REALLY appologize for the REALLY late posting. I have tried to send
this a few times but have had trouble with my email account.
Turns out the problem was me. Anyway, On Aug. 14th I spotted 2 Great
Egrets on the west side of the Willapa Bay in Nachotta on the Long Beach
Penninsula. It was really quite a sight. They were on the mud flats at low
tide foraging up and down the area. They were just south of the Nahcotta
docks. I'm not sure if any other birders got the chance to see them or not.
I feel really bad not getting ahold of our local Bird Club to let them know.
:( I was just too busy with work and moving ect. And I was denied
permission from the property owners to allow birders to come out anyway.
I am 100% sure this is what they were. We had a good close view with
my best bins! ;)They stayed really close together and as the tide moved in
they seemed to slowly make thier way north.
They were right near a fairly large herony so they did get harassed a
bit but not bad.
Again, I really appologize for the late posting.
I have just moved and my bird books and checklists are all packed still
and I can't find them. I was wondering how rare of an occurance is this for
Pacific County?
I hope this email makes it through this time. I wanted to share this with
everyone out there!
Happy Birding,
Dan Williams
