Today in the steady rain at Julia Butler Hansen NWR Marv Breece and I had 23 Snow Geese. Also 1 Great Egret. Raptors weren't shabby either with lots of Northern Harriers, Bald Eagles, 2 American Kestrels, 2 Merlin, 2 Peregrine Falcons, and Red-tailed Hawks. No kites were seen. Altoona was pretty dead with high water. Also saw 1 White-throated Sparrow west of the covered bridge near Grays River. We looked for the two Harris's Sparrows, but did not find them.
