On 4 June 1977 Sayre Greenfield, Alan Contreras and I observed a pair of Northern Waterthrushes (Seirus noveboracensis) on the south bank of Crescent Creek at Crescent Creek Campground, south of Davis Lake on the east side of the Cascade Range in Deschutes County, Oregon. Although there have been at least three previous sightings of the Northern Waterthrush in Oregon (Gabrielson and Jewett, Birds of Oregon, 1940:508-509; Kridler, Auk 82:496-497, 1965; E. G. Whiteswift pers. comm.), apparently this is the first time a pair of this species has been seen in the state.
