Birders with scopes by Caren Willoughby

Twenty birders met Mark Elliott at Boiler Bay in hopes that the fog would lift enough to see some birds in the sea. The group was rewarded with a few good birds that happened to be close in. We saw large flocks of Black Oystercatchers and Black Turnstones in Depoe Bay!
