Field Trip: Cooper Mountain Nature Park *FULL*
The slopes of Cooper Mountain, just south of Beaverton, are a great place to look for spring migrants. Among the meadow, oak woodland and mixed coniferous forest we hope to find Black-throated Gray Warbler, Orange-crowned Warbler and House Wren, while Vaux’s Swifts hunt for insects overhead.
Please dress for the weather. You will drive yourself for the day. Dan will reach out with further details before the trip.
Trip limited to 9 participants (Metro properties limit groups to 10 total).
