Another out of area bird, but a much more interesting one has just shown up in Baker county Oregon. A Tundra Bean Goose was found by Aaron Beerman and company today approximately here: 44.8375823,-117.8182411 across I-84 from the Baker City airport. 

Just figured I’d let people here know in case anyone was interested!

Will do, however great-tailed grackles are more typical there. Female great-tails might get mistaken for common due to their size.

Just figured I’d cross post this in case anyone was interested. 
Aaron Beerman and family reported a Common Grackle in Ontario at the Love’s Truck Stop today. Just too far to see from the Idaho side though 😂. 
Keep your eyes peeled!
