Hi Tweeters -
This evening, the Whimbrel reported by Robert Cleland was still
present at Discovery Park in Seattle.
I watched it with the tide mostly in, until about 5:45pm. It was
working the driftwood and bush edges on the south beach at far
eastern edge, below the south bluff.

Thanks, Robert, for the report & find -
