Another good source has been the Wash. Breeding Bird Atlas, unfortunately out of print I believe.

>> Can anyone direct me to or know of a list of subspecies for Washington birds and especially bird subspecies for the Olympic Peninsula where I live? Case in point, last week I saw my first for Washington Black-crowned Night-Heron here in Sequim. That bird didn't look anything like the BCNH I'm used to seeing in Florida. This WA BCNH had an almost yellow breast and acted completely differently than what I'm used to in FL. It was skittish and hid in a Western Cedar whereas the BCNH in FL are easily approachable and are found mostly along freshwater sources. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
