September 3, 2:34 PM - Hi, this is Bob Flores. At Washtucna we had an
EASTERN PHOEBE and a ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK. At Lyon's Ferry we had
three CLAY COLORED SPARROWS. Birds were moving through a lot quicker
today and there were fair numbers. That's it. Good Luck.

September 5, 4:50 PM - Jan Bragg (206 524 3460) There was a juvenile
RED-NECKED PHALAROPE at the Montlake Fill in Seattle today around
1:00 PM on the main open pond at the south end of the area.

September 8, 9:10 PM, Hi. This is Nancy Laframboise (509 627 3695).
Today in Two Rivers County Park in Kennewick Dennis Rockwell and I
located a BLACKPOLL WARBLER. That's it.

September 8, 10:00 PM - This is Tom Aversa reporting on a trip
Wednesday to Eastern Washington. We found a TENNESSEE WARBLER at the
Sprague Lake Resort which is on the southeastern end of Sprague Lake.
You have to pay a fee to get in there but there was quite a lot of
birds there yesterday morning including the fall plumage Tennessee.
Thanks.

September 9, 10:47 PM - This is Rachel Lawson (206 282 5593). Today
we birded the Tokeland area. At the Tokeland Marina we saw the BAR-
TAILED GODWIT in amongst all the MARBLED GODWITS on the dock. At
Midway Beach we saw one BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPER. The sandpiper was to
the right of the entrance road on a beaten-down pathway through the
vegetation back of the sandy beach not too far from the entrance
road. That's it. Good birding.
