FIELD NOTES Doug BELL June 22, 1987 - cont' up from mud flats, then drifted over towards me on 101, also WG attacking. The eagle then flew very low (<50') over the highway, somed up over hills, got up to about 250' in height, flew back over mud flats a long, hover- flipped a bit at lower heights, 2 false stops, then wandered back to me on 101, soared high up over hills. 18:30 - Went out to Nestucca Spit State Park, Tillamook Co, Oregon. Walked about 1.5 mi down spit. Much beach activity - motorcycles (2), offroads (2), 4-WD's (1), jogger. "3 for 4" Nevertheless collected 3 Western Gulls (08B 194-196). Counted 29 good Western Gulls as they flew by the dunes. These birds look like good WG's! Also saw Marsh Hawk. Through by 20:05. Went to the campground along Nestarts Bay, Tillamook Co., Oregon. Nest birds here: Crows, Great-blue Herons, Swainson's Thrushes, Song Sparrows, Golden-crowned Kinglets foraging, nest Downy Woodpeckers, Redwings, Chestnut-backed Chickadees, Wilson's Warbler, Olive- sided Flycatcher. June 23, 1987. Processed birds from yesterday. At 13:30 arrived at Nestarts Bay Marina. Nestarts Bay seems to have scattered gulls, mostly imm. foraging on it. But at the Marina got a close up view of a perfect Glaucesous-winged Gull - pink eyeing, segmented iris, light primary tips. It chased a 3rd yr GWG around the marina - even ignoring other juni. gulls nearly (mostly WG's!) to chase this one bird. Another GWG, possibly the mate?, also at the Marina. Several adult WG's out
