One of the finest aquaria I have ever had the opportunity to visit is the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport, Oregon. In addition to the superbly displayed collection of fishes, cephalopods, and other aquatic life, the aquarium features an excellent aviary housing Pigeon Guillemots, Common Murres, Black Oystercatchers, and Tufted Puffins.
Moblogging from the central Oregon coast, peace and good bird watching.
