Greetings:

Idaho's first PINE WARBLER is still being seen in Moscow, Idaho,
at Ray and Bettie Hoff's, 906 East 7th Street.
Hoff697 at turbonet.com. It's been around since Dec 7.

Idaho's first RUFF is at Deer Flat NWR near Boise, Idaho. It was
first seen Dec 26 and I saw it on Dec 29. It was being very
dependable below the dam at Lake Lowell.

Also in Boise is Idaho's first LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL. It
has been frequenting the Hidden Hollow landfill in the Boise
foothills but has been a less dependable and a little tougher to see.

If you want more info from me, call me at 208.883.0943. I won't be
checking email until (hopefully) Monday.

Good birding.
