Couldn't find scoters today but did have:
5 species of grebes (2 Red-necked)
1 Common Loon
5 minima race Cackling Goose
29 Snow Geese
9 swans (assumed Tundra but too far)
All were seen from the WDFW access in Adams County.
Hatton Coulee Rest Area had:
10 LB Dowitchers
I Gr Yellowlegs
1 Pectoral Sandpiper
1 Baird's Sandpiper (isn't it getting late?)
Both kinglets
Washtucna had Varied and Hermit Thrush, nothing unusual.
Had a report from a few days ago about a Red Phalarope on the Royal Slope.
