Here is the summary of my morning dogwalks from NW Seblar Terrace
to the Pittock Mansion for the week 05/09/13 to 05/15/13.  Species
neither seen nor heard the previous week are in ALL CAPS.

Additional information about my dogwalk, including an archive of
weekly summaries and a checklist, may be found at

http://www.hevanet.com/winkg/dogwalkpage.html

The sightings are also in eBird.

We did the walk 4 days this week.

This Friday, Shawneen Finnegan and Dave Irons will be leading the
Morning Bird Song Walk at the Pittock Mansion.  These walks, 
sponsored by Portland Audubon, are free and begin at 7AM at the 
Pittock Mansion parking lot.  The walks last about 2 hours, but 
you're free to leave whenever you need.  For further information 
about this and the other Morning Bird Song Walks see

I will be off Friday to Fort Rock for the start of The Wild Turkeys'
48-hour ("gonzo") Birdathon.   If you'd care to sponsor me, and 
thereby support Portland Audubon, please go to
