I have been making roughly monthly trips down to the Southwest Corner of Washington, with an aim to find 150 species this year in Skamania, Wahkiakum, Cowlitz, and Clark Counties. I had made a previous trip down in October (including some kayaking in Wahkiakum
 County - a trip whose two entries have now been added into the blog), and just returned yesterday from a three-day trip. I'm counting it as my November trip, hence three days of blogging under that title, all in October. </div>

I learned a lot about wind, and found some good birds. ðŸ˜„ I made some good progress on the year goals, and took some pretty pictures along the way, some of them of birds. In the continuation of themes for the year, I even got Rickrolled by a Great Egret. It's.
