I checked out the Narbeck Wetlands today around 11:00 a.m. The first thing
I'll mention is that the place was overrun by Boeing employees out for walks
during their lunch hour. You might want to try earlier in the morning.

The perimeter walk goes through Alder and Cedar woods and skirts a large
cattail marsh. There were very few birds visible on the perimeter trail.
Almost everything I saw was from the boardwalk through the VERY new wetlands.
Things may get more interesting in 10 years. Still, there were a few birds:

GREEN HERON (1)
Killdeer
Northern Flicker (2)
Barn Swallow
American Robin
European Starling
American Crow
OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHER (1)
Black-capped Chickadee
Chestnut-backed Chickadee
Bushtit
BLACK-THROATED GRAY WARBLER (2)
Song Sparrow
American Goldfinch
