w Benedict's 1961 19 July Sunset Bay St Paul to Brookings, Oregon. Got a mouse. left for Bandon about 8:30 A.M. Went to Coquette Pt. near Bandon to see birds. Nice beach. Inland white-crowned Sparrow, Red-stuffed Flickers. On beach Wimmers (3 or 4), hildebe (few), half dozen Black Oystercatchers (quite noisy). On rocks western Gulls, Pigeon Guillemots, Common Murres, Tufted Puffins, cormorants (probably all 3 species), and ducks (white-winged Scotus) in water with Western Grebes. Other land birds included Barn & Violet- Green Swallows, American Goldfinch, and robins. Stopped for lunch at Between here and Port Orford very little is to be seen as the road is inland. We ate lunch at Battle Rock wayside. Here were few birds (mostly swallows), but Gulls flew over head. Out over the ocean one black gull sized bird wheeling over the water. Possibly a Shear- water but not a Sooty Shearwater. Stopped several times where we could see the ocean, and many islands. However birds were scarce, most being Gulls and Cormorants, and the ever present Swallows. The Forest is quite (new) new, logged out / or burned heavily, and only few conifers are in evidence, in contrast to the heavy cooler forests of northern Oregon. Saw Gray Squirrel, ground squirrels, Cols of vultures, including one that took a squirrel from the highway. Almost here last day in Oregon. Elvey let the Thraupophis go.
