Hello all,

Just a note that today after a day of photography hiking into the LT Murray
Wildlife Refuge, I drove the long way home up N. Wenas Rd, then over
Ellensburg Pass. From the fork in Wenas Rd (ie. one heads toward the
campground, the other up and over Ellensburg Pass) I saw 13 bluebirds in the
first mile of driving alone on this excellent sunny day! I also saw 5 more
from Umtanum Falls down to the end of the bluebird box highway.

Spring snowmelt has hit fast over there - it was over 50 degrees at
Ellensburg Pass!

Cheers,
