Hi Tweets,

Finally, the warm weather we were promised over the weekend is here.
There was one WESTERN GREBE off the Public Pier this morning. A
CINNAMON TEAL drake, seven LEAST SANDPIPERS, and an AMERICAN PIPIT
were in the Edmonds Marsh. Yost Park produced a first-of-season
BLACK-THROATED GRAY WARBLER. Ran into Steve Pink at Yost Park. He
had spotted an empid high up in a tree. When we returned to try to
relocate it and identify it, we found the BTGW. Here's the list:
