So, something clearly seems to be "up" with W. Tanagers this spring. I am hearing scattered single birds in unlikely spots: I had different birds in single alders in otherwise urban areas in Ballard in the last two days. Given others' reports, numbers seem better than average this year, but later too, so together it seems we're getting a late, concentrated burst with good numbers.



We had a "pip-pip-pip" calling OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHER up in n. Lake Stevens on May 10, our first of the year; they tend to be rare in our area.
