<The Alder Flycatcher was readily seen around 9:30 today at the Marblemount
boat launch. Kudos to Scott Atkinson for this find! In comparing it to
Willow Flycatcher, the only thing that struck me (aside from its voice) was
the bill; it seemed noticabley shorter than the Willows I am used to seeing.
In case anyone is using GPS to locate birds these days, the coordinates for
the waypoint to the bird are N 48 31.495, W 121 25.543>


Jack I think your coordinates are a wee bit out? This puts you well out in
Mount Baker national forest?

I find it more like
N 48-53584
W 121.42611

Make every Garden a wildlife Habitat!

When the animals come to us,
Asking for our help,
Will we know what they are saying?

When the plants speak to us
In their delicate, beautiful language,
Will we be able to answer them?

When the planet herself
Sings to us in our dreams,
Will we be able to wake ourselves, and act?
