Hi all
Thinking about a short birding visit to Oregon later this year, and am trying to get an idea of what birds I have a chance of seeing.
My visit would be in early September, probably second week.
I have a potential target list I am working through, but while I’ve been able to get some info on seasonal movements, most of this is fairly vague, i.e. summer or fall. I am really struggling to get more accurate info, and so I would greatly appreciate your views on the likelihood of my being able to find the following species at that time:
Tundra Swan
White-winged Scoter
Calliope Hummingbird
Rock Sandpiper
Short-billed Gull
Thayer's Gull
Tufted Puffin
Sage Thrasher
Fox Sparrow
Golden-crowned Sparrow
American Tree Sparrow
Brewer's Sparrow
I will undoubtedly be too late for some of these, and too early for others, but I don’t have that sort of info – any help very gratefully received!
Many thanks,
