Tweeters,
?
I spent a couple of hours this morning searching for rarities in southern Thurston County.? I was able to find the Bank Swallows at the quarry on the north side of Rainier that Paul Hicks reported last Monday.? I then spent some time at the intersection of Churchill Rd and H-507 about a mile east of Tenino and heard a loud and persistently calling Red-eyed Vireo in the forest on the northeast corner of the intersection.? I never did see the bird, partly because of all the road traffic, but it was still great to hear its song.
