Hello Tweets,

This past Monday we endured a very stormy day at Ocean Shores,but we enjoyed many of the birds we did see. We have just placed a few more photos onto our recent galleries,which include a motionless Wilson's Snipe, a "Black"Brant, "Dusky"Canada Geese,Pacific Loon and Semipalmated Plover(s). It was great to see many of the same Canada/Cackling Goose flocks still present at the Ocean Shores Golf Course,as well as the nice immature Snow Goose with the 10 Greater White-fronted Geese. It was a good spot to study our Canada and Cackling Geese,although the geese were quite wary at times. It was also nice seeing many Semipalmated Plovers still remaining at Ocean Shores and perhaps these birds may overwinter.

Our latest photos can be reached at one of two of the following links:
