Fine Feathered Friends
All over the South Beach the return of shorebirds is evident. On the beach the Dunlin, Sanderling and Sandpipers are growing in numbers. Around the harbor the Pelican flocks are building and even the Raptors are seen more frequently. Typically this activity is a bit later in the Spring but everything is early this year.
The Annual Shorebird Festival held at Bowerman Basin and splilling over to the ebaches and bays of Grays Harbor is scheduled at the end of April but with this early pattern the best viewing may be well before that date! Find out more about the festival by clicking on the link above.
OR... head to the beach early and do a little "birding" on your own. Our accomodations at Westport by the Sea and Cohasset Beach are ideal for beach walking / birding and the luxury homes at The Point at Westport Harbor offer a view of Pelicans, Loons, Grebe, Cormorants, Godwit and more... right from the living room! Check available accomodations at Westport Beach Escapes and have a wonderful stay!
