Greetings,

This morning, 23 December 2001, I waited at the previously described
location in Twisp, that is, 311 Burgars St between 0945 and 1015 but no
Yellow-throated Warbler. Fortunately Patrick and Ruth Sullivan came by and
told me the bird is being seen more regularly at another nearby location. At
that nearby location I viewed the YTWA at about 1030. This location is in a
trailer park. The gentleman who lives here said he didn't mind putting his
address on the internet. But keep in mind this is a trailer park and people
live in close quarters so be respectful and you should be rewarded with a
nice view of this bird.
To find this new location: headed north on SR 153 at Twisp, turn left just
before the bridge over the Twisp River. This is Twisp Avenue. I don't recall
a sign
being at this intersection, but the King Tire Store is at this intersection.
>From Twisp Avenue go right on Magers St. Continue ahead and enter the
Manufactured Housing Park. There is a loop road that runs through
the trailer park. Go right on this and the trailer number is 62. The feeders
are
visible from this loop road.

I am sure the previously described location is worth checking as well.

On my way to and from Wenatchee, I spotted a total of 7 Pacific Loons on the
Columbia River. This is the most that I have seen in a day in eastern
Washington,
where they are generally uncommon. Here are the locations for the PALO.

Chelan County, north of Chelan Falls along US 97: one at mileage 236.2 and
two
at mileage 237.7
Douglas County: A flock of four north of Orondo along US 97 at mileage 216.6

Good Birding,

Tweets,
The twisp yellow-throated warbler showed up at 8:00 am this morning at the
previosly described location. It stayed and fed on the apple juice until
about 8:15. The bird apparently is visiting other feeder locations in the
neighborhood so if you don't find it at this location, exploring the
neighborhood feeders might prove productive.

Good birding,
