I noticed that Bob?s photos, documented in the ebird list, were embedded as a list of jpeg numbers, nothing that an ebird visiter could access. I?ve wanted to embed images in my ebird lists but couldn?t figure out how to do it. Today, I used the Help section to find out one way to do it, perhaps the only way. It involves loading the picture to a Flickr account and pasting the Flicker address for the image into the ebird record, a rather cumbersome way to do something that, on most web sites, is much simpler. I hope ebird gets more user friendly... soon.

Tweeters,

Me and my dog had a good morning mostly in Snohomish county with 3 year birds above (and the Swamp Sparrow was a WAFER also).



However since I have neglected my chores that I planned to do today, I am sending just a brief summary and eBird links:



White-throated Sparrow in extreme northern King county

Gyrfalcon in tree by farmhouse on Old Snohomish Monroe Rd and 127th Ave SE, Snohomish, WA, seen by many

Also Swans, Snow Geese, Canvasbacks (Prison Pond), Ravens, Harriers, and other usual suspects made for a good day.
