8:35 AM Nov 23 - Hi, this is Steven Mlodinow. At about 8 o'clock this morning
Steve Pink, Casey(?) Besell(?), Bill Tweit, Patrick Sullivan and myself and
several others had the Black and White Warbler at the previously mentioned
location on Foster Island at the Arboretum in Seattle. And that's about it.
Good luck and good birding.

8:39AM Nov 23 - This is Bob Sundstrom 762-4327 reporting for yesterday, Nov.
22nd at Discovery Park at West Point right near the lighthouse a single Snow
Bunting flushed up. This was at approximately 11AM. A couple of days ago on
the 19th, between 38th & 39th along Admiral in West Seattle on the downslope
of Admiral Torchman's(?) Park, a single Scrub Jay! That's all for now.

12:07PM Nov 23 - Ruth Taylor, 525-6345 in Seattle. One reminder to folks
going over to the Foster Island Arboretum area to look for the Black and
White Warbler. Be sure and look for it north of the 520 tunnel as well as on
the south side as previously reported. From about 9:15 until at least 10
o'clock it was on the north side of the tunnel, it kind of had flown back in
the woods as if to maybe cross over 520. It took about 15 minutes of waiting
to find it and it showed up again with the rest of the flock. Good Luck.

2:18PM Nov 23 - Hi, this is Michael Priebe, 623-7798. I went this morning to
Magnuson Park where, unfortunately, the godwit was not to be found. However,
there were a few other good birds. In particular there was a flock of
American Pipits north of the boat launch along the waterwhich were eventually
harried by the dogs and flew into the middle of the park. Also in the
Noah(sp?) Property to the north of the park, there was a Mourning Dove and
there were 3 Greater White-fronted Geese with a flock of Canadas. And, flying
overhead and unfortunately across Lake Washington to the east side was a
Rough-legged Hawk. Thanks and goodby.

3:54PM Nov 23 - Gary Bletsch (360) 853-7203. Today, Howard Armstrong and I
got to see the Scrub Jay that had been found earlier in Mt Vernon. It's on
Snoqualmie Street near the library in old Mt Vernon and it's at a bird feeder
in an architect's office. This is at the end of Snoqualmie Street close to
the Skagit River. Also at March Point [the point between Fidalgo Bay and
Padilla Bay - transcriber's note] were 12 Snow Buntings. Thanks. Goodby.
