>Yesterday, my father and I birded the Vantage area with the hope of
>relocating some of the birds that Scott Downes found a week ago. Below are
>the highlights:
>
>Yellow-billed Loon - The bird was still present below the Wanapum Dam
>spillway. We observed the bird for 30 minutes from the dam visitor's
>parking area (on the east side of the river). The bird was only 100 yards
>from the shore, so we were able to see all the diagnostic field marks.
>Thanks Scott for reporting this bird.
>
>Long-tailed Duck - Three birds (two females and one first-winter male) were
>observed from Wanapum State Park (on the west side of the river).
>
>Glaucous-winged Gull - One bird was briefly seen flying down the river just
>south of the dam.
>
>Rock Wren - Several birds were seen/heard south of the dam.
>
>Varied Thrush - Observed in a large flock of Robins in Wanapum State Park.
>
>Tundra Swans - Three birds south of the dam.
>
>American White Pelican - One bird sitting on a sand bar approximately 1/4
>mile downriver from the dam.
