The RUSTY BLACKBIRD continues along Tualco Loop Road (page 175 A Birder's Guide to Washington). This morning I saw the bird at the farm near the northeast end of the loop. There was also an unusual female BREWER'S BLACKBIRD with a light eye. Photos of both birds may be viewed at: http://www.pbase.com/marvbreece/image/123486735

Nearby, at the prison farm pond, there were TREE, VIOLET-GREEN, CLIFF and BARN SWALLOWS, as well as a pair of CINNAMON TEAL.

A COMMON YELLOWTHROAT was singing at Crescent Lake Wildlife Area.
