And it was visible (though it was a DISTANT SCOPE VIEW) and identifiable
from the lake platform at Marymoor, so I've added Black Tern to the Marymoor
list. Actually, if Ryan saw it from Idylwood, there's a chance there are
two Black Terns. I was seeing the tern quite a bit north of Idlywood at
about the same time Ryan was watching it. Unfortunately, there is
precious-little public access along the lake, making it difficult to tell.

Also at Marymoor today:

Sharp-shinned Hawk 1 over dog meadow
Cooper's Hawk 2 immatures together at lake
Mourning Dove Seen again today
Vaux's Swift Not seen yesterday
