Yesterday Greg, Harry, Dave and I birded Johnny Mercer in the evening hoping to get Dovekie again. Harry wants a better picture for his life photography list. Unfortunately some hooligans messed with one of the grates on the pier the night before so they had it closed. However, after ocean watching for some time from the base of the pier, Dave got a dovekie in the scope. Of course it took off before Harry could get a shot.
Today I met Harry down at the pier again and we tried for a couple hours with no luck.
Some pics from the past two days:
Northern Gannet
Horned Grebe
Common Loon
The resident Long-tailed Duck.
In the evening the family and I took a walk through CB State Park looking for owls. We heard 3-4 Eastern Screech Owls and Melissa found a nesting Great Horned Owl. I am going to go back tomorrow and attempt some pictures. The owl was laying flat on the nest but his/her horns were sticking out one end and tail out the other.
