The Trip:
Overcast and dreary, but no rain ... went to look for the Swamp Sparrow which had been seen there ... no luck ... did not walk the loup, only covered areas where the Swamp Sparrow had been seen.
Fernhill Wetlands:
Fernhill Wetlands is a 243 acre site composed largely of restored wetlands and moist soil habitats of now defunct sewage ponds, located near the Tualatin River in Forest Grove, Oregon.
