We arrived at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge with high hopes of seeing countless birds migrating through, only to find that the major migration had happened about a month earlier. :- (
While the numbers were fewer than expected, we were not disappointed!

One of our first stops was at the refuge headquarters, where we received current information about critter activity in the refuge. We got a close-up glimpse of a number of birds gathered around the feeders.
