Hello, this is the Audubon Society of Portland Rare Bird Report. This report
was made Thursday July 2. If you have anything to add call Harry Nehls at
503-233-3976.

On June 29 an adult LEAST TERN was at Ankeny NWR. It could not be relocated
the next day. The GREAT-TAILED GRACKLES near Langlois and at Fern Ridge
Reservoir continue to be seen. On June 24 a male ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK was
in Bend.

The fall adult shorebird migration is now moving through the state. On July
1 a SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPER was among WESTERN SANDPIPERS on the North Spit of
Coos Bay. SOOTY SHEARWATERS are also arriving just offshore.

Two AVOCETS and a CLARK?S GREBE are still being seen at Baskett Slough NWR.
Up to 44 WHITE PELICANS continue at Ankeny NWR. Up to 130 WHITE PELICANS are
now at Ochoco Reservoir near Prineville. On June 26 a LEAST FLYCATCHER was
calling at the Fort Klamath Cemetary.

That?s it for this week.
