Here is the summary of my morning dogwalks from NW Seblar Terrace
to the Pittock Mansion for the week 05/16/13 to 05/22/13.  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

The sightings are also in eBird.

We did the walk 4 days this week.

This Friday, Lillian (the dog) and I will be leading another
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
