Subject: query for mountain-climbing birders

Hi, Tweets

In years past (many), I have climbed most of the high Cascade peaks and
done much hiking in alpine territory. However, while I knew ravens and the
occasional hawk, I didn't keep track of anything smaller.
I am presently working on an article about birding in Washington state.

My question to those of you who go to the *top* of the mountains: what
birdlife have you seen on the high slopes? Near the top of Mount Rainier I
had a raven. That's my list. I would like to be able to cite at least a
couple more species; they can be migrants, but they need to be up in the
glacier area, not at timberline.

Any help would be much appreciated and you may reply to me directly.

Cheers, Diann
