Hi All,

Below are links to two additional images captured yesterday (Monday) morning on the trail near Stillwater. One of the unusual aspects of the morning was that I had visuals on probably five different SWAINSON'S THRUSH instead of just hearing them. Several actually afforded some good photo ops - a situation I have very rarely encountered. One of those images can be found at http://www.tubbsphoto.com/-/tubbsphoto/detail.asp?photoID=3925677&cat=38989.

Additionally, there were numerous RED-BREASTED SAPSUCKER individuals in a relatively small area. One worked a number of trailside trees down close to the ground, allowing for some good image opportunities. One shot is at http://www.tubbsphoto.com/-/tubbsphoto/detail.asp?photoID=3925670&cat=38983.

For those of you who haven't ventured to the Stillwater area yet, it is a wonderful place to bird. The access is excellent due to the Snoqualmie Valley Trail, WDFW parking lot and several walking trails that lead through the large public land tract there.
