And they're headed south... Around 4pm this evening I saw 2 adult and 4 immature Greater White Fronted Geese grazing by the little bay at 49th Ave So and Lake Washington Blvd, about a half mile south of the Sayres Pits. They were with 15 Canada Geese and a little group of American Wigeons. At this rate, they should get to Seward Park by the weekend.

Also today a lovely Western Gull down at the Atlantic Street boat ramp. (South Henderson and Lake Washington Blvd)

Just returned from voting in south Seattle and while driving back in the pouring rain on Lake Washington BLVD, I quickly drove through the Stan Sayers Park (hydroplane pits at SeaFair). A flock of six Greater White-fronted Geese (2 adult, 4 immatures) were grazing on the grass in the middle of the parking lot with a small flock of American Wigeons. There was also great side-by-side views of California, Ring-billed and Mew Gulls in the parking lot. Glaucous-winged and another dark-mantled gulll (Western?) were across the street.
