[birding] Silverton area birds

[Carl & Christine Schneiders]

Hi Birders,

I took a bike ride to Torvend Rd. Pond a local pond/mud flat. The best birds were 12 LEAST SANDPIPERS, 1 GREATER YELLOWLEGS, 4 CHIPPING SPARROWS, 20+ SAVANNAH SPARROWS, and 1 COMMON RAVEN.  I thought that SAVANNAH SPARROWS were a lot less common until I started biking through grass and grain fields.
