Another Day in Newport

Hi All,

We have volunteered to present a bird talk to a group of Girl Scouts next week so we went to Newport to get some education materials from the Fish & Wildlife office. We got two programs, one about bills and one about adaptations called, "Dressing a Bird". Looks like they will be great.

While in Newport, we visited Yaquina Head where we volunteered in 2009. 

Here's Sandy in a familiar pose, looking at thousands of murres on the rocks. We were jealous since there are so few murres at Heceta.

Perigrine falcons have nested on the cliff behind the visitor center.

More beautiful coastal scenery at Ten Mile Creek just north of our campground.

The bridge at Ten Mile Creek shares the same beautiful shape as most of the bridges on the Oregon coastal highway.

Love 
Sandy & Carl
