PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Birders are crowing over an extremely rare bird sighting that occurred at Hug Point State Recreation Site on April 21.
Vancouver resident Michael Sanchez told KOIN 6 News that he was photographing Hug Point Falls at sunrise when he noticed a little bird near the shoreline.
“I happened to look behind me toward the ocean and saw this cute little bird standing on the sand,” Sanchez said. “The sun wasn’t fully up yet, so to my eyes, it looked like a little black bird.
