December 21, 6:26 PM - Hi, this is Jason Starfire. (206) 940-7836 today
birding Ocean Shores. The Pribilof range ROCK SANDPIPER was still present at
the end of the Ocean Shores jetty. We could not locate the TROPICAL
KINGBIRDS. That's it. Good luck and good birding.

December 21, 7:18 PM - Hi, this is Tom Aversa.Today there was a pair of
WHITE-TAILED KITES in Lewis County just south of Route 6 and just north of
the town of Curtis at the Curtis Pool Company, a fuel complex.

December 22, 3:20 PM - Jan Bragg (206) 524-3460. There's been a GREATER
YELLOWLEGS at the swimming beach at Magnuson Park in Seattle. It was seen
there Saturday, December 16th, and again this morning. There was a NORTHERN
SHRIKE on the adjacent NOAA property also this morning. Thank you.

(TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: COMMENDATION TO JAN FOR CLEARLY AND SLOWLY ENUNCIATING
HER PHONE NUMBER AND ALL PLACE NAMES. HAD SHE BEEN ACCOMPANIED BY ANOTHER
BIRDER, WE MUST CONCLUDE THAT SHE WOULD ALSO HAVE CLEARLY AND SLOWLY
ENUNCIATED THAT NAME AS WELL!)
