Last Wednesday I found myself with a day to spare, being in advance of the rest of the party.  I knew from last year the poor returns to be expected from graptogyne-hunting without current local knowledge so I took myself off to the coast down in the vicinity of what is now known to be Not-really-a-petrified-forest (unlike its namesake in Arizona.  We do so like to imitate American words and phrases).  I did a little snapping at Cape Nelson, south of Portland.  Being aware some people like to identify birds in other people’s photographs, I offer the below.  Hints:  The smaller bird bathing in a puddle beside the Cape Nelson lighthouse is on the ACT list.  The grey seabird seen from the cliffs near the lighthouse is not on the ACT list.
