Hi,
There was a single WESTERN KINGBIRD at Neah Bay, seen v. well, but the
highlight was hundreds (if not > 1000) of Savannah Sparrows (at one point
330 in a single scan)feeding on the beach amongst the washed up kelp etc.
There were 5 Lapland Longspurs and 9 American Pipits. Among the thousands of
mostly California gulls were 20 solid adult Herring Gulls.
