Hello Tweeters, Goodbye Seattle, and Hello Tumwater,

Yes, my wife and I are moving from our little house on the hill (actually,
it is the dump by the alley) in West Seattle and moving to just out side
of Tumwater, south of Olympia.

I will, for the first time since I left home in South Carolina in 1981,
have a yard that I can hang bird feeders in. Eventhough we don't move in
until March first, I have 150 lbs of bird seed and many feeders up and
going already.

On the several days that we have spent moving stuff in, I have put a
couple of traps out and have banded 30 juncos and 1 Black-capped
Chickadee. My pre-yard list is;

Red-tailed Hawk
Sharp-shinned Hawk
Glaucous-winged Gull
Northern Flicker
Rock Dove
Crow
Steller's Jay
House Finch
House Sparrow
Bushtit
Chestnut-backed Chickadee
Pine Siskin
Dark-eyed Junco
American Robin
American Goldfinch
Song Sparrow
Spotted Towhee
Golden-crowned Kinglet
Ruby-crowned Kinglet
Red-winged Blackbird

I'm looking forward to the change of scenery.

Russell
