Hi Tweets

Nice weather brought out five birders this morning for the Marymoor walk. And
we were rewarded with some good birds. Highlights:

American Wigeon 1 male on lake
Bald Eagle Adult over lake, several sightings near R/C
field.
Tree Swallow A few for sure
Violet-Green Swallow ~100 over the slough
MOUNTAIN BLUEBIRD F in E meadow at 7:15A
Yellow-rumped Warbler Abundant - Audubons & Myrtles
SAVANNAH SPARROW 1 or 2 in E meadow
Western Meadowlark A handful around E meadow

There was a large flock of gulls (Mew, RB, and Glaucous-winged) near the
velodrome.

There were hundreds of unidentified swallows over the lake.

Still had Golden-crowned Kinglet and Fox Sparrow, though they should be heading
out soon.

All told, 47 species.



REMEMBER - next week, I'm switching to WEDNESDAY at 7:00 AM.
