Fort Stevens Bird Watching
|
|---|
|
Easily accessible from the coast highway, Highway 101, some four miles west of Astoria near Warrenton.At Fort Stevens State Park, a bunker sign marks the route to parking lot D and what appears to be a concrete gun emplacement. In reality, it is a cleaverly disguised bird blind, a grass topped bunker. Though the interior is spartan, a photographic pisplay on the back wall identifies more then 50 bird species native to the area. Vertical openings to the south overlook the sanctuary. Coffenbury Lake is another good location. There is a parking lot at the north end of the lake, from which a trail leads around the lake, a hike of about two miles. The habitats on the two sides of the lake are quite different. During spring, this hike is a must.
