Hi Tweeters -
At least 3 of us were out looking this morning for the possible
Arboretum Great Gray - no luck.
There's definitely a lot of possible hiding spots though, so it might
be tucked in there, right beneath our noses.
Other nice Seattle birds that graced our 2-3 hours of searching this morning:
Barred Owl
Hutton's Vireo [right next to Ruby-crowned Kinglets for good comparison]
Hermit Thrush - 2 chucking away
Red Crossbill - 1 at least

Hopefully more people will take a stab at searching for this owl --
who know what else might turn up in that underbirded park?
