Columbia Estuary CBC 2007
The Columbia Estuary Christmas Bird Count was conducted Sunday, December 16. We had better weather than predicted, but the birding was tough. Nothing seemed to want to come out and be counted. We finished the day at 126, the count week included 4 additional species.
I have included a few snaps of species seen on count day. The most notable of which are a RED-NAPED SAPSUCKER which we found in the same tree where one was found last year (we assume its the same bird) and a BARROW'S GOLDENEYE which has been at the same spot in front of the Dairy Queen for 7 winters.
