Greetings Tweeters,

A note that the sight of TURKEY VULTURES over our home has returned as of
yesterday, 4/16/99. Three were observed soaring from over the Snoqualmie
Valley below us then drifting southward right up over out property about 2
miles SW of Fall City, identical behavior observed here last spring by three
or sometimes four birds.

Also, this morning we had a RED-BREASTED SAPSUCKER knocking itself out on
the shop gutters. This is following over three weeks of our poor daughter
being woken way too eary by NORTHER FLICKERS on the house gutter by her
bedroom - cool activity, but not cool dealing with a tired 4 year old for 3
weeks! :-)

Cheers,
