Tweeters:

Although the trip was chiefly a trout trip for the two boys and myself to
Quincy Lake near George, I ran into a few birds along the way that might be
of interest to Tweeters. Among them:

Cinnamon Teal 3 (marshy area near Quincy Lake 4/9)
Swainson's Hawk 2 (single birds near Hwy 281 just south of Quincy 4/8, not
early but first of season?)
Long-billed Curlew 1 (open area just south of Gorge Amphitheater area 4/8)
White-throated Swift 1 (not early but first of year? Just south of Wanapum
SP 4/8)
Say's Phoebes in several places, a couple Mt. Bluebirds also
Rock Wren 1 (rimrock site 3 mi south of Wanapum SP 4/8)
Canyon Wren 1 (as previous 4/8)
COM. REDPOLL 1 (4/8 at George, single bird in ornamental Sweetgum tree next
to little minimart right off Hwy 90, late date)
