Hey Folks,

Thought I would add to the warbler reports. Yesterday, when visiting my grandma in Longview, WA, I had three Black-Throated Gray Warblers near the trees in my grandma's back yard (I also snapped photos of the BTGW). There was also a sneaky Yellow Warbler in the bushes near the Black-Throated Grays. I also ventured out to Willow Grove to find a Orange-Crowned Warbler near the farthest restrooms from the entrance of the recreational area.

Later on in the day before starting to travel back to the Tri-Cities I went down to Vancouver lake. In the "NW Lower River Rd pool" off of 501 there were several Greater Yellow Legs, one LESSER Yellow-Legs, Two BAIRDS SPs (I did not see any pectorals, the Bairds was clearly not a pectoral, it had black legs, longer primaries than tail, and very spotty tan scapulars, full tan band around breast, shorter in length & height than pectoral [hunkered down and not skinny looking like Pectorals often appear] though more plump and larger than western) and a Solitary SP. Over 20 Great Egrets also were present.

Good Birding,

Kevin Black
Pasco, WA

I photographed one at Scriber Lake in Lynnwood earlier this week. Very photogenic bird and not too camera shy.
