Autumn Shorebirds I: The Common Species

Early autumn is the best time to see the most numbers and the greatest diversity of migrating shorebirds. This class will introduce you to the most common species that migrate through western Oregon yearly without overwhelming you with all the possible rarities. We will look at size, shape, patterns, and behavior to help you distinguish each species. By becoming familiar with the common shorebirds, you will be better prepared to recognize a rarity when you find one.
