The weather was gorgeous and sunny for my return to Marymoor. I was joined by
four others for a very nice morning birding. There were surprisingly many
birds to see:

Green Heron Probably at least 5, some young
Wood Duck F with 3 young at weir
Hooded Merganser 2 young at RC ponds
Osprey One over lake, later over RC
Bald Eagle SE corner of park
Spotted Sandpiper W, W/out spots, maybe 4
Belted Kingfisher MF, probably at least 4
Warbling Vireo 2, adult and immy
Brown Creeper 2 at start of boardwalk
Wilson's Warbler 4 - appeared to be family
Bl.-headed Grosbeak Around 20, MF and young

47 species total. Not bad for early August!
