July 26 I went into Florence this morning to get supplies
and call home to Albany, CA. While in
Florence, I heard a crossbill fly low over the
safeway store parking lot giving flight song
(Type 3 or 4?). I spent the remainder of
the day back at the camp stuffing bird
skins all day -- did not set up the net.
Heard mostly Type 4 birds, occasional
Type 3's. My estimate for the area as
a whole: 75% Type 4, 25% type 3.
flocks of juveniles were common. I
never observed a mixed flock of Type 3's
and Type 4's. The weather was mostly
very good, with some fog rising into
clouds - but generally fair, warm --
70's. Lot's of rickins, also a
house finch came into (around) camp.
A flock of evening grosbeaks flew over.
A turkey vulture was seen.
July 27 I spent the morning prepping skins.
The weather was about the same (breezy
as usual). Type 4's + Type 3's around.
At about 11:30 am I finished the skins
and headed N on 101 just to
explore drove as far as Tillamook
where I took 6 to the E. Sitka spuce
