Shorebirders~
I searched for shorebirds in coastal Coos County, OR today. I was able to
find 25 species including a rare fall coastal migrant, but no RBA rarities.
The biggest miss was a Whimbrel and other possibles that weren't detected
included Wilson's Snipe & Phalarope, American Golden-Plover & Buff-breasted
Sandpiper. Below is a list of the birds seen & sites visited with only
"new" birds listed for the latter sites.
