This week’s top five

1

BAY CITY — If you crossed the Flintstones car with a contraption designed by Wile E. Coyote, you might end up with something approaching the Oregon Coast’s latest attraction.

Running from Bay City to Tillamook, the pedal-powered Railrider buggies allow sightseers to set their own pace as they cruise along a scenic stretch of railroad track. And no trains on the line means no one will have to worry about hearing a “Meep-Meep!” anytime soon.

LINCOLN CITY — Oregon is a state that stirs the senses and prompts each of us to honor our home in our own way. The latest show at the Chessman Gallery shows what five young Oregon artists love about the Beaver State — from homemade smoked salmon to driftwood forts on the beach to skateboarding in the rain.

NEWPORT — If you paid attention to last week’s Top Five, you already have your tickets for Saturday’s one-night-only

from the editor performance from international jazz sensation Halie Loren. This week’s mission is to get yourself spiffed up, grab that special someone and make it a night to remember as Loren showcases her new acoustic dreampop sound as well as songs from her longstanding jazz quartet.

Book your passage now The Newport Adventure Van will be heading to Siletz Falls on Friday, June 24, for a guided tour of the mechanism that helps control fish passage to the upper Siletz River Basin.

The basin is unique in that it contains viable runs of seven species of migrating fish, spring and fall Chinook salmon, Coho salmon, Chum salmon, summer and winter Steelhead and sea-run cutthroat trout.

As well as controling fish passage, the Siletz Falls adult capture facility is also used for monitoring purposes and to collect winter and summer steelhead hatchery brood stock.

After the tour, the van will stop at Moonshine Park for a picnic lunch, with hot dogs and marshmallows roasted over an open fire.

The 18-acre park features fishing, swimming, camp sites, boat launch,

See the light She knows drawing inside and out Only a fool bets on the weather at the Oregon Coast.

But, if conditions allow, Manzanita’s Hoffman center for the Arts plans to offer its upcoming botanical drawing classes in the open air.

Led by Dorota HaberLehigh, the course is designed for students of all skill levels, aged 18 and up. Classes will be held on Tuesday, June 28, July 5, 19 and 26, from 1:30 to 4 pm.

Students will learn the fundamentals of botanical drawing using pencils, color pencils and other dry media to portray accurate shapes and master shading techniques to create three-dimensional effects.

Tuition is $80 for the

series or $25 drop-in fee per class. Basic materials will be provided or students may bring their own. Drawing supplies can be purchased from Haber-Lehigh for $5 per session or $15 for the series.

Haber-Lehigh is an artist, educator, linguist and a forager with a passion for native plants. She lives in Seaside and is the author of two coloring-reading books: “ABC of Native Plants of the Coastal Pacific Northwest” and “Native Berries of the Coastal Pacific Northwest.”

To register for the class, go to hoffmanblog.org and follow the links for “Programs” and “Register for Workshops.”

restrooms, horseshoe pits and plenty of open space.

The van will depart from the Newport 60+ Activity Center at 9 am, returning at about 5 pm.

The trip costs $15. To book a spot, drop by the center at 20 SE 2nd Street, or call 541-265-9617.

For more information on events and trips, go to www.newportoregon.gov/ sc.

The Newport 60+ Adventure Van will be heading south on Tuesday, June 14, for a visit to the Heceta Head Lighthouse and the Darlingtonia State Natural Site in Florence Commanding spectacular views from the clifftops just south of Yachats, the Heceta Head tower and keeper’s house are both listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Participants should wear comfortable shoes for the roughly half mile walk up to the lighthouse.

The lighthouse was first lit in 1894 and remains the brightest on the Oregon Coast, its Fresnel lens casting beams 21 miles out to sea.

During World War II, the Coast Guard Beach Patrol manned Heceta Head with 75 men. They guarded the beaches between Florence and Yachats with attack dogs and lived in wooden bunkers where the Head Keeper’s house once stood.

Covering 18 acres, Darlingtonia State Nature Site is the only Oregon State Park dedicated to the protection of a single plant species — Darlingtonia Californica, a carnivorous plant, commonly known as the Cobra Lily.

Boasting a hollow dome with a forked “tongue,” the plant produces purple and yellow flowers that rise above the green cobra-like leaves in spring.

The cost for this trip is $10. The van will depart at 9 am from the Newport 60+ Activity Center, 20 SE 2nd Street, and return by 5 pm.

To book a seat, drop by the center or call 541265-9617. To see a complete listing of classes, events, presentations, and trips go to www.newportoregon.gov/sc.

Mount a timber expedition The Hebo Stewardship Group will be giving tours of two timber-thinning projects near Mount Hebo this Friday, June 10, offering a before-and-after look at stewardship in the Siuslaw National Forest.

The group will visit the

South Lake stewardship proposed thin timber sale area, which is roughly 160 acres and is projected to yield up to 4 million board feet of timber. The group will then move on to the already-completed Bixby thin timber project to

complete the before-andafter comparison.

US Forest Service staff will lead the trip and be available to answer questions.

The group plans to meet at 10 am at the summit of Mount Hebo, with the tour

running until about 1 pm.

To book a spot, RSVP to Jane Barth by e-mail at jbbarth@comcast.net or by phone at 541-760-4693 no later than Wednesday June 8, to allow organizers to plan for transportation, hard hats and snacks.

For more than a decade, the Annual Samaritan House Secret Garden Tour has offered a feast for the eyes, music to charm the ears and a host of fragrant blooms to delight even the most discerning nose.

And this year’s event, set for Sunday, June 26, is no exception, offering a host of musicians to entertain visitors at 11 unique coastal gardens in the community of Otter Rock, just north of Newport.

The gardens have many special features, including ocean views, natural grasses, garden art, rock walls and a piece of a McCullough bridge.

“The musicians make the gardens even more special,” said event organizer Pat Stern, “It just adds something magical to the whole experience.”

As one of the event’s longstanding musicians, Sue Lick has volunteered her talents for more than 10 years, playing a mixture of folk, country, pop and classical on guitar some and keyboard.

“I enjoy being out in the gardens and I see so many great people every year,” she said.

“I’ve also been able to perform in some really marvelous places, sometimes looking out over the water or tucked away in a beautiful garden.”

The roster for this year’s event includes Margot Fetrow playing the hammered dulcimer, Mark Mugnai on guitar and Robert Rubin on the accordion. Duos include vocal-guitar combos Fred and Cindy Town and Malarkey & Stiles. Brent Bunker will play the dulcimer and maybe another instrument or two while Red Rhody, featuring Gary Baker, will provide a little soft jazz. Returning again to the event is Taylor Johnson with the soft, melodic sounds of her flute.

Musician Sue Lick

Meanwhile, Mark Beckwith will share the sounds of the Native American flute,

6 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • june 10, 2016

bringing anywhere from 12 to 18 of the instruments to his garden venue.

“Each flute is a different key and some are different pitches,” he said, “so I may change the flute with each song.”

New of the tour this year, members of the Newport Youth Symphony of the Oregon Coast will bring their talents to one of the locations.

The Secret Garden Tour will run from noon to 5 pm, offering light snacks and wine in addition to music at some gardens.

Tickets, $25, are available at JC Thriftway Market in Newport, Toledo Feed and Seed, Bear Valley Nursery and Landscaping in Lincoln City and at the Samaritan House office at 715 NW Bay Street in Newport. Tickets are also available online at brownpapertickets.com.

Proceeds will help Newport’s Samaritan House shelter, educate and guide homeless families toward independent living.

Some career highs

Lori in her Alaska da

ys

Night was falling. We were high above the sea headed back to Adelaide, Australia, after a long day of exploring wine country. The tiny plane carried just three of us.

A woman from China who had given herself the Anglo name of Belinda Sunshine sat in the back.

Next to me was Arlyn, who was from Brooklyn, and in the seat in front me, the pilot. We were guests of the Southern Australia Travel Council on a food and wine tour.

It was cold inside the little plane, and Arlyn had thrown her black shawl over both of us, blanket-like.

She had never been to Alaska and peppered me with questions about my experiences there until the engine noise drove us to silence.

Then suddenly, I felt her hand grip my shoulder. I turned to her. She leaned in close, “What’s the matter with the pilot?” she demanded.

“What do you mean, what’s the matter with the pilot?” I said.

“He’s slumped over the wheel.”

I looked and sure enough, his body was hunched over the controls, head down. In that moment I felt a stab of terror in my core the likes of which I had known only one other time and that was driving across a lake in Alaska and hearing the ice crack beneath me. In a flash I understood the situation. We were on our own. Me, Belinda Sunshine and Arlyn. There wasn’t going to be another pilot stepping onto the plane to help out.

••• For the first 18 years of my life, I never ventured farther from home than Ocean City, Maryland, and the Jersey Shore.

So perhaps it stands to reason that

for as long as I can remember I yearned to see new places. Once I moved to Alaska and met my husband, we began traveling around for his job, and I started testing the waters of travel writing.

As a freelancer the task was a sort of Catch 22. In order to be invited on these “FAM” (shorthand for familiarization) trips, you had to have a track record of publishing travel stories, but in order to get published, you had to be invited on the trips. My early solution was to write about places close by. One of my first stories was for a German publication aimed at affluent Germans learning English. In the wee hours one morning, I caught a ride on the Green Tortoise bus from southern Oregon to Seattle, with a stop at their camp on the way. There were a number of young students on the bus, many with guitars, and we sang our way to Seattle. It was the kind of story that wrote itself and my editors were quite pleased. I figured I was on my way. My next story for the magazine came after I moved to Denver. The editor pronounced my writing “pedestrian.” Ouch.

But I kept trying. My desire to write travel stories is part of how I discovered the Oregon Coast.

An unplanned stop in Nye Beach provided fodder for a number of stories for years to come, and also inspired our decision to one day live here. It took a good seven years, but we made it happen.

Landing here without a job was the move that allowed (or forced, depending on how you looked at it) me to attempt to make travel writing a full-time gig. I’m kind of an unlikely candidate for the post because I am not a comfortable flyer, especially in little puddle jumpers. Once, while flying from

Juneau to Wrangle, Alaska, the pilot pulled out a Bible-thick book from his glove compartment and began thumbing through it.

I asked what it was, and he said, rather grimly, I thought, that he needed to contact the airport.

I knew that could only mean impending doom and I and the other writer sat clenching each other’s hand the rest of the flight.

Turned out the pilot’s need to make contact was purely routine.

Despite this slight issue with planes, I’ve traveled on someone else’s dime to Puerto Rico, New Mexico, Park City and the Channel Islands. I’ve explored the south of France by barge and Switzerland by train. And then, of course, there was Australia, which saw me fretfully boarding tiny planes every other day.

••• On that dark evening high above the sea, the pilot seemingly unconscious, I did the only sensible thing I could think to do.

I leaned forward, grabbed him by the shoulder, and demanded, “Hey, what’s the matter with you?”

Slowly, he pulled away from the controls and sat up, then turning to me, said, “I was writing in my log book by the light of the dash. You just about gave me a heart attack.”

“Oh, sorry,” I said, greatly relieved and much chagrined.

Then Arlyn leaned closer, ‘See’ she said. ‘I knew we were in good hands with a girl who’d spent time in Alaska.’

If she only knew.

A STATE OF MIND

“OUR OREGON” SHOWS WHY FIVE YOUNG ARTISTS LOVE THEIR HOME Five young Oregon artists will use the latest show at Lincoln City’s Chessman Gallery to show what their state means to them — from homemade smoked salmon to driftwood forts on the beach to skateboarding in the rain.

“Our Oregon” will open with a public reception from 5 to 7 pm on Friday, June 10, offering guests the chance to enjoy wine and refreshments as they peruse the work and chat with the artists.

The show will feature work from Justin “Scrappers” Morrison, Brett Superstar, Ben Soeby, Jesse Narens and Tripper Dungan — friends who share an edgy style and a love for Oregon.

Justin “Scrappers” Morrison was born in the deep northern woods of Vancouver Island in Canada, but grew up in the suburban sprawl of southern California.

He now stands firmly rooted between those two extremes in Portland.

While he would rather spend his time surfing, beach combing and adventuring on the coast with his son, Camper, and wife, Amy, most of the time you’ll find him behind a desk making stuff.

“I make art, ads, and designs for myself and the best clients in the world,” he said.

The natural world is also a major influence on the work of Lincoln City artist Ben Soeby, whose intricate and playful drawings are inspired from a lifetime spent on the river and in the woods.

“Art and fishing saved my life,” Soeby said, “and the two activities have given me an attachment to the moment, as well as a meaningful perspective on nature and life.”

Soeby received a bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from Oregon State University in 1994 and went on to travel in Samoa where he created a series of work. In 1990s, he moved to the Chiapas area of Mexico during the Zapatista uprising, where he created a series of tiny books and other work. In 1999, he decided to return to his native rivers on the Central Oregon Coast, much like the salmon that inspire him, to live out his dream of making art and living and learning from nature. He worked with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife for 12 years on projects up and down the coast spanning all phases of the salmon life cycle.

Now, Soeby is a well-known artist on the coast, using colored pencil on reclaimed wood to explore and interpret nature’s truths in his signature witty style.

Tripper Dungan knew he was cut out to be an artist at a young age, when he got in trouble for coloring in

his brother’s He-Man coloring book. Moving around a lot as a kid, he did a lot of drawing in the back seat on multiple cross-country moves. He ended up in Las Vegas as a teenager and attended the Las Vegas Academy of Art. After high school, Dungan made a DIY carnival in his mom’s backyard, complete with a tea bar, black and white cartoon hut and a 7-foot mushroom house.

After a summer in San Diego he hitchhiked up to Eugene, helped form a small circus composed mainly of fire dancers and started making psychedelic shadow puppet shows.

In 2002, Dungan moved to Portland and proceeded to try and get his art on the walls of every coffee shop, bar and beauty parlor that would let him. He met up with an amazing group of artists who formed the Junktown Allstars, who put up salvaged wood walls decorated with art and Christmas lights at lounges all around the city.

Jesse Narens is a self-taught artist who turned his back on a full scholarship to art school in Chicago because he feels art should not be graded or have rules.

He moved to Portland in 2010 and began painting shortly after, using a style that is completely intuitive, starting with a blank surface and no preformed ideas or sketches. He describe his work as “feral art” — living in the wild, but coming from domestication. He believes that humans need to become feral and reconnect with nature to progress as a species.

Rounding out the group is Brett Superstar, who has lived in Portland since 2000 and still is in love with the city. He sells work all over Portland in different shows and does commissions regularly.

“Our Oregon” will remain on display through Monday, July 4, available to view from 10 am to 4 pm every day except Tuesdays. The Chessman Gallery is located inside the Lincoln City Cultural Center at 540 NE Hwy. 101.

learn a little

Give yourself a stretch goal this summer Registration is now open for the Summer Intensive 2016, an action packed, fun filled dance camp offered by the Newport School of Artistic Movement.

Running from June 20 through July 1, the course will give people aged nine and older the chance to learn traditional African dance and hip hop, modern dance, ballet, composition and yoga.

Abdoulaye Thioub will lead the African dance and hip hop classes, joined by his brother, Mamadou, who will teach African drumming. Mamadou and Abdoulaye are the sons of Meissa Thioub, director of Ballets Africains in Sangomar, Senegal. They were both raised in the tradition of the griot, the storytellers of their people, and have been carrying on their family’s tradition since they were children. Mamadou, a gifted drum teacher, has participated in artist-in-residency programs throughout California and Oregon for 16 years. Abdoulaye has been teaching dance since he was a teenager in Dakar.

Ballet and composition will be taught

by Newport School of Artistic Movement Director Nancy Mittleman, who has more than 40 years of directing, teaching, acting and dance expertise. Originally from New York, Mittleman has performed on both east and west coasts and studied with such luminaries as Martha Graham, Charles Weidman and Leslie Watanabe as well as the NYC Ballet. Her teaching credentials also include more than 17 years teaching movement and theater as an artist-inresidence in Oregon and British Columbia.

Mittleman’s students have gone on to study and perform at Juilliard in New York City, San Diego Dance Theater and the San Francisco Ballet to name just a few.

Zephyr Kreis-Stokes, who has studied and performed with Mittleman for 15 years, will be teaching modern dance; and Tina Watanabe and Gidget Manucci will round the program out with yoga classes.

For more information or to register, contact Mittleman at 541-961-2316 or email pdedance@msn.com.

Doing a

brisket trade

Menu revamp is proving popular at Toledo’s Twisted Snout Brewery

By Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

Sometimes, all it takes to inspire a chef is one truly magnificent meal.

Other times, it takes a hundred so-so ones.

It was the latter that finally persuaded Twisted Snout Brewery owner Stu Miller to finally add the dish that has become the restaurant’s runaway bestseller — smoked brisket.

The moment of revelation came when Stu and his wife, Becky Miller traveled to Texas to attend their son Rob’s graduation from Air Force boot camp.

“We were driving around Texas and trying everyone’s brisket; I just wasn’t that impressed,” Stu said. “The Salt Lick [just outside Austin] was really good; most of the other ones, not so much.”

So, when the couple got back to the coast, Stu set about showing Texas how it’s done, creating a brisket that is perfectly seasoned, smoked, and slowcooked all night long for a melt-in-themouth experience.

“It’s been selling out every single day since he started,” Becky said. “We’re hearing from everyone that it’s the best brisket they have ever tasted.”

Served every day from Thursday through Sunday, the mouthwatering meat is available either as a chopped brisket sandwich or as a half-pound platter served with fries, coleslaw and a side of Pig Feathers BBQ sauce for $12.

Stu’s new masterpiece has been so successful that it completely eliminated demand for the restaurant’s previous Rolls Royce barbecue items, the sirloin sandwich and the French dip — a fact that made the couple grateful for their new chalkboard system, which allows them to change up the menu from day to day.

The chalkboard menu and revamped kitchen offerings are all part of a re-branding that has seen the couple expand the Twisted Snout name to cover both the brewery and what used to Pig Feathers BBQ restaurant next door.

The belly burger, served with egg on top Becky and Stu Miller

The move is similar to that recently undertaken by Rusty Truck Brewing in Lincoln City, which expanded its brewery name to cover the Roadhouse 101 restaurant.

“Most breweries around Oregon don’t have a different name on their restaurant,” Becky said. “We wanted to emphasize the brewery and the awardwinning ales that are brewed onsite.”

And the restaurant is still home to the award-winning Pig Feathers BBQ rubs and sauces, as well as longtime menu favorites such as pulled pork sandwiches and baby back ribs.

Smoked chicken thighs also remain on the bestseller list, at $8 for two, served with fries and coleslaw.

Among the new menu offerings is the Belly Burger, a hamburger made from house-cured and smoked pork belly ground together with tri-tip to make a burger that tastes like bacon, served with the option of a fried egg on top for an extra-decadent meal.

Another new item that has proved an instant hit is the pork belly sandwich, served on a ciabatta bun with cucumber, house-made honey mustard and red onion.

“I cure the pork belly for two weeks, then put it in a sugar wash bath for a couple of days before smoking it over hickory — so you get the salty, sweet and smoke flavors with a hint of bay leaf,” Stu said. “It’s not braised like a lot of places; it’s cured and smoked.”

“Just like everything Stu does, it’s really a work of art,” Becky said.

“Delicious, complex flavors that are amazing.”

A refreshed paint job of gold and green brings the brewery colors across to the restaurant and serves as an ideal background for Becky’s photo-realistic oil paintings of kelp that adorn the walls.

“It feels more relaxing in here, more comfortable,” she said. “It’s been fascinating to watch people from the counter; children behave better, and people seem to linger more to visit and enjoy themselves.”

Meanwhile, the switch to counter service has allowed the couple to streamline their operation, with Becky taking and delivering all the orders while Stu works his magic in the kitchen.

“Every plate put in front of you is cooked by the owner,” Becky said. “And the person waiting on you is the owner.

If you have a problem, you are talking to the right person, right now.”

Having the owners in such handson roles also means diners can get instant answers on which items are suitable for vegans, vegetarians and people on gluten-free diets. The Millers are especially proud of their extensive gluten-free menu.

Stu takes orders from the regular menu right up until 7 pm on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, and until 8 pm on Fridays and Saturdays. On Thursdays-Saturdays, once the main restaurant closes, the kitchen switches over to a special After

The pork belly sandwich

Hours Menu, available on the brewery side to guests aged 21 and over for at least two more hours.

The After Hours Menu features shareable dishes such as pulled pork tacos, shrimp tacos, pulled pork nachos, pot stickers, and beer battered Polish sausage corn dogs, with the option of Twisted Snout ales at happy hour prices.

The latest seasonal ale offerings

include the Tail Curler IX, a crisp, single-hop pale ale made with Simcoe hops; and the ever popular seasonal Spruce Hog, made with spruce tips hand-picked by Stu and Becky on the Oregon Coast.

Twisted Snout Brewery is located at the south end of Main Street, Toledo. See updated menu and hours any time at www.twistedsnout.com.

A SLEEPER HIT Climb on board as the railriders roll into Tillamook Story & photos by Gretchen Ammerman For the TODAY

It was one of those invitations I couldn’t refuse — the chance to be one of the first people to ride a stretch of disued train tracks in rail cars built according to what Oregon Coast Railriders owner Kim Metlin described as a “severly modified internet design.”

When I first heard about it, a grainy black and white film starting playing in my head of two men standing on a handcar, pumping their arms furiously as they tried go faster than an oncoming train.

The railriders, by contrast, are pedal powered and because no trains share the tracks, will never need to be propelled at breakneck speed.

“People ask if it’s safe,” said Tillamook County Commissioner Mark Labhart. “They have this idea that a train is going to come along unexpectedly, but there are no trains operating on these tracks, period.”

This particular chance to ride the rails was due to Drew Carney of KGW’s “Out & About,” coming to do a live broadcast before the Railriders business opened to the public on Memorial Day weekend.

As it’s a morning program, we assembled at 4:30 am in Bay City, just north of Tillamook. Though the sky was still dark, the mood was light because, other than the TV people and me, all the day’s riders either owned, worked for or had a part in making the venture into a reality. Among them, Commissioner Labhart, who had stumbled upon the Metlins’ original rail riding business in Joseph, a small town on the eastern edge of Oregon.

“I thought this would be a tremendous opportunity for the

coast,” Labhart said. “To get the Metlins on board, we put together a ‘red carpet’ team consisting of people from Tillamook County, the Port of Tillamook Bay, the Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad, Visit Tillamook Coast, the chamber and the City of Bay City. Many people have worked to get this to happen out here, but it took off in Joseph, and I know it will take off here, especially since we have this beautiful coastline. We did a test run earlier and people were honking, waving and even pulling over to ask how they could do it too.”

Although there are similar projects in other countries, the Metlins run the only such rail riding opportunities in the Western US. “I can’t figure out why,” Labhart said. “It’s such a great way to use discontinued railroad tracks.”

The coast route takes riders from the Fish Peddler Restaurant in Bay City into north Tillamook near the Blue Heron Cheese Factory, and includes classic bridges and the rare opportunity to see the back of the Tillamook Cheese Factory.

The route is 11 miles roundtrip, and takes about two hours. Because each car holds four people, there are opportunities to peddle a lot or to simply sit back, enjoy the ride and let your friends and family do all the

KGW’s Drew Carney (rear) is joined by Railriders guide Nate Bell (left) and Susan Moreland of Visit Tillamook Coast for an early morning jaunt along the track

“We do lots of different stories but rarely get to do something this active and fun,” Carney said after the ride.

“We loved this.”

I checked in with Metlin after the opening weekend to see how it went.

“It was super,” he said, “Maybe better than super. We sold out both Saturday and Sunday. So it’s a good idea for people to call before coming out to make sure we have room.”

work. There are no major hills on the route, so different fitness levels and ages can get involved.

You can even ride one while filming live television, as Carney and his cameraman discovered.

Oregon Coast Railriders excursions run Thursdays through Mondays and leave at 9 am, noon and 3 pm. Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for kids under 12. Riders should arrive a half hour before the take off time. For reservations, call 541-519-3891. For more information, go to ocrailriders. com.

Audubon offers a double bill The Audubon Society of Lincoln City is gearing up for a packed weekend, with an Open Space birding walk on Friday, June 10, and a hike through the Salmon River estuary on Saturday, June 11.

Beginners are welcome on both outings and binoculars and guidebooks are provided.

For Friday’s bird walk, the group will meet at 9 am on the gravel road east of the Comfort

Inn, just north of the D River in the center of Lincoln City.

Part of a series of birding tours of Lincoln City Open Spaces, this easy walk takes participants over the Devils Lake State Park boardwalk, through the campground to the dock on the lakeshore. Walkers will stand a chance at seeing summer songbirds as well as osprey and the year-round resident birds of these wetlands,

such as wrens, sparrows and woodpeckers.

Saturday’s outing will offer a slightly more demanding hike over flat but uneven ground through two restoration sites on the Salmon River estuary just north of Lincoln City.

Participants will have a chance to see waterfowl, song birds and raptors who have returned to these sites following completion of restoration

projects during the past few years. Birders on last year’s walk spotted more than 35 species.

The group will meet at 9 am just past the junction of Highways 101 and 18. Turn left onto N. Frazier Road just south of the Salmon River.

For more information on either walk, call 541-992-9720.
