hi everyone,
today i have two topics that i was wondering if anyone knows anything about.
1. is the montlake fill
2. is birding by small boat in the San Juan's.

i have been going to the montlake fill for the past 5 or so years mainly to
find garter snakes and beavers etc. now that Ive started birding i have been
there a couple of times and saw a lot of ducks and robins. i was wondering
if anyone knew about birding for sandpipers and other stuff there. thanks a
lot in advance.
my other topic is seabirds up north. my family recently got a small boat and
i want to know if you can see puffins up in the islands or any other
interesting birds. i have seen rhino auklets and common murres in fairly
good numbers in Puget sound fishing for salmon before and a ton of gulls(not
IDable) thank you anyone how knows anything and would be willing to share
it.
