Shortly after 6 this morning I saw at least 7 purple martins at the pilings on Ballard's Shilshole Bay, 3 of them adult males. While some are still checking out nest sites, others are already building nests. Two house sparrows and a glaucous winged gull are also attempting to nest.

Later in the morning and in the afternoon on Lake Sammamish I saw 1-2 black swifts, mostly in the central and southern parts of the lake. I had high hopes for finding them with today's cloudy weather!
