Inlanders and Tweeters,

Yesterday, I led a WOS trip to Pend Oreille County. We had good weather and 8 participants. We were able to find 100 species, which included all of our target species for the trip.

Northern Waterthrush - Several birds singing in a swampy area on Sullivan Lake Road. One bird was observed very well, as it was singing in the top of some brush.

American Redstart - A male and female were observed on the south end of Calispell Lake.

Harlequin Duck - One female observed 100 yards east of the pair that my dad and I observed last weekend.

American Dipper - Two birds observed on Sullivan Creek.

Bobolink - Six or seven birds observed in a field on the west side of Calispell Lake.

White-throated Swift - Several dozen birds sighted above the cliffs in Metaline Falls.

Veery - One bird singing at the south end of Calispell Lake.

Bank Swallow - Probably 300 birds flying over the Pend Oreille River a couple of miles south of Metaline.

Red-eyed Vireo - Very common in the county, but very hard to observe. One bird was observed very well on River Bend Road.

Barrow's Goldeneye - At least one bird observed on the south end of Calispell Lake.
