Sorry for the lateness of this report. On Sunday, 10/26, at approximately 3:00 p.m., we saw five CATTLE EGRETS along Norman Road, north of Silvana along the Stillaguamish River. They were in a small pasture with ... cattle (young Holsteins), on the north side of Norman Road, about a quarter mile or so west of Norman Road's intersection with the main highway that goes through Silvana and then winds north around the edge of the valley (sorry but I don't see the name of that main road listed in DeLorme -- p. 95, C6).
An hour or so later, we saw several thousand SNOW GEESE on Fir Island, off in the distance directly south of the newish dead-end public access parking lot off Fir Island Road that's a mile or so west of Mann Road.
