Hi All: The Bonaparte's and parasitic jaeger show is continuing at Pt Defiance (the point). I first saw a large feeding flock from the ferry and then rode the 5 mi loop at Pt Defiance. Nothing at the Dalco overlook, but at the bridge overlook there were about 500 Bonaparte's with at least two jaegers. The water was choppy so I couldn't see the jaeger until they started chasing. At one point one jaeger flushed the entire flock and chased it finally singling out one gull. Bring a scope and you will likely see more jaegers roosting on the water. No terns.



Also heard a black-throated gray singing.
