On Saturday, May 1st, I took part in the the Grays Harbor Shorebird
Festival's field trip to Point Grenville. The trip was led by Marcus
Roening and Tom Schooley. We had a full bus. The weather was amazing with
partly cloudy skies and light winds. We looked and looked for Tufted
Puffins on one of the grass covered rocks, but were unsuccessful in finding
any. We did have nice views of a Peregrine Falcon and all three comorants.
Also, we found at least two Black Oystercatchers on the rocks. Here's the
complete list:

Common Loon
Red-throated Loon
Western Grebe
Pelagic Comorant
Brandt's Comorant
Double-crested Comorant
Surf Scoter
