I walked the Puget Power Trail from 64th to Russell Rd and back. Before that, I walked the first 100 feet of the trail east of 64th. On both sides of the path is slow moving water. At about 100 feet, I saw my first Washington Wilson's Snipe. He never moved and let me approach within 12 feet, meaning a nice picture
( www.pbase.com/alndonna/image/109147594 ) He was at the same spot 90 minutes later, on the north side of the path, next to some pieces of black plastic.

Otherwise, it was very quiet, only a half dozen raptors, very few ducks and song birds.
