With help from Gary Bletsch I got a nice look at the SNOW BUNTING at March Point. I saw the bird from 7:30-7:40AM this morning. It was then flushed by a passing car. I did not see where it went.

As I approached the flooded field near the Samish T (Bayview/Edison Rd south of Samish Island Road), I noticed 2 PEREGRINE FALCONS hunting the DUNLIN flock.

The Edison MERLIN was home. Nice to see that bird. There was a shrike at the West 90 and an adult dark HARLAN'S HAWK near the East 90.

On Thomas Road, just south of Sunset Road, there was a very large mixed flock of blackbirds. After some searching, I noticed a male RUSTY BLACKBIRD in the group.

Good birding.
