Scott, Tweets,



As I recall one lived just long enough to be counted on the CBC in late
December on the UW campus. Perhaps that's the record Scott mentioned? I
don't remember the year offhand.

Tweeters:

Nothing extraordinary but did find a few birds at Discovery this morn, and a
beauty of a morn it has been.
Just the usual stuff except for a late SWALLOW, sp. over the south meadow.
Of three warbler sp, the most
noteworthy was a late BLACK-THROATED GRAY in a flock between the north
parking lot and the Daybreak
Indian Center. This could be the same bird I had back on the 5th, on which
date there was another along
nearby Gilman Ave in close proximity to Dave Hutchinson's Flora and Fauna
books.

This was my latest but I recall two old November records from the same spot,
and then there's that once
Seattle CBC record (I'd have to check with 'ol Gene but I believe that bird
was over by Seward Park though).
For a behavioral highlight, a Sharpie chasing a Hermit Thrush at close range
was of note uphill of the
Daybreak Center; the thrush survived.
