Monday, December 9, 12:03 PM - Hello, this is ???? with a belated report
for the weekend. On Saturday in Kittitas County at Vantage, south of
Wanapum Dam in the cliffs we had GRAY-CROWNED ROSY FINCHES, about ten,
going to roost in the cliffs and showing extremely well. Further south
in the river on the islands there were approximately twelve WHITE
PELICANS. Back at the State Park we had a GOLDEN EAGLE. On Sunday in the
Coulee Lakes at Soap Lake we had a ROCK WREN. A Lenore Lake we had a
SAY'S PHOEBE and up on the Waterville Plateau there were four
ROUGH-LEGGED HAWKS and a GOLDEN EAGLE. That's it. Good luck and good
birding.

Monday, December 9, 2:45 PM - Hi, this is Bob Morse calling from
Bowerman Basin down in Hoquiam. The BEAN GOOSE was seen again today, as
late a 2:00 o'clock in the afternoon. At that time it was at the very
western end of the runway. It was with six or seven CANADA GEESE.
Their small flock was very much isolated from a flock of hundreds of
Canada Geese that are now at the airport. Good luck and good birding.
