Hi Tweeters,

For the person who was looking for Pine Siskens a good place would be the western slope of Stevens Pass. They were abundant on Sat. and Red Crossbills were common from about 2,500ft down to Skykomish. Some of the crossbills were in the midst of some courtship behavior. Three males were approaching one female, she allowed one of them to feed her. Also on the railroad grade trail at Wallace Falls State Park I heard a N Pygmy Owl calling as it moved downhill.
