Wes, and other interested parties for future reference:

One of the main bird rehab centers is HOWL, 787-2500, x888. They are
located in the Lynnwood area, hours for drop-off: 8:00 am to 8:00 pm.

For more central locations: the Humane Society Inc. SPCA, located near
the intersection of I-90 and I-405 in Bellevue, makes a run up to HOWL
with injured birds everyday. That phone number is 641-0080, and the
address is 13212 SE Eastside Way Blvd. They are closed on Tuesdays. It's
probably best to call before going, especially to get specific driving
directions for those unfamiliar with the area.

Thanks,
Rick
