Here is the summary of my morning dogwalks from NW Seblar Terrace
to the Pittock Mansion for the week 04/02 to 04/08/09.  Species in
ALL CAPS were neither seen nor heard the previous week.

weekly summaries and a checklist, may be found at

We did the walk 5 days this week.  Lillian and I will again be 
leading the Audubon Society of Portland's "Morning Bird Song Walk" 
this Friday, April 10, at the Pittock Mansion, starting at 7AM.
