Join us at Yaquina Head Lighthouse and Natural Area on the Oregon Coast just north of Newport. We will see colonies of Common Murre and Brant’s and Pelagic Cormorants. A popular attraction is the pair of Peregrine Falcons who nest on the cliffs near the interpretive center.

Location: Meet in the Interpretive Center parking lot.

Directions: From HWY 101 north of Newport, turn west on NW Lighthouse Dr. and continue for 0.8 mi, then turn right and continue for 0.2 mi to find the interpretive center.
