Florence to Winchester Bay - Day 3

Glenn and Jeanette checking some birds

Our first stop for birding for the day was at Cleawox Lake in Honeyman State Park, Jeanette and I had enjoyed it so much the day before that we wanted to share it with our friend Glenn Pannier, plus we wanted his help to verify a possible Osprey's presence. Glenn spotted it, and we got photos, our first Osprey of the year! Here is our Bird List.

Our second stop was Stables Road, an e-Bird Hot Spot on the Smith River just North of Reedsport.  An old favorite of the three of us, it again did not disappoint us. Here is our Bird List. Next was a lunch stop at Subway in Reedsport.

Our third bird stop was Salmon Harbor Marina in Winchester Bay where we did a driving tour and got the following Bird List, and then a second Bird List at Half Moon Bay.

Dropping Glenn back at his trailer at Siltcoos Lake, we continued north, trying to make up our mind of an overnight spot.  We ended up at an old favorite of ours, Alder Dune Campground just north of Florence. When we stepped out of the van, we were greeted with the birds sounds, so made one more Bird List for the day.
