The ARCTIC LOON yet again graced the waters off Hansville
today. In talking to two other birders, it was seen in the
morning hours as well. Between 3:10 and 3:50 p.m., it was
nnw of the small Hansville grocery store mentioned in previous
posts. Lighting and water conditions were excellent, but the
bird was diving frequently and spending a good amount of time
underwater. Finally, around 3:40 pm, it decided to take a
break and get in some preening. Close scope views were had
fairly close offshore. If only I had a camera...

The Sammamish TOWNSEND'S SOLITAIRE put in another appearance
as well - this time in front of 2406 201st Ave SE early this
morning (http://home.comcast.net/~chandtr/toso.html)

Good birds came in pairs today! :-)
