Clatsop Spit and the extreme northwestern portion of Oregon lie at the mouth of the Columbia River. Birding areas include Coffenbury Lake for Wrentit and migrant songbirds. The South Jetty of the Columbia River has produced some of the most remarkable records in the state, including Yellow-billed Loon, Lesser Sand-Plover, Spotted Redshank, Long-toed Stint, and McKay’s Bunting.
This is THE best spot in Oregon to look for Sharp-tailed Sandpiper and Ruff. Isolated brushy areas create a haven for migrant songbirds. Rarities have included Ash-throated Flycatcher, Mountain Bluebird, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, and a number of Eastern warblers. We will make short jaunts along the coast to look for new pelagic species and seek out any newly reported rarities.
The extension will begin 13 October 2019, immediately following the regular Oregon Tour, and end mid-day on 16 October. We will stay all three nights at the same motel in Astoria.
This tour is limited to seven participants. See the separate itinerary for the regular Oregon Tour that includes one terrific pelagic trip!
