Hi Tweeters,

I am headed up to Okanogan County this weekend with several target species including White-headed Woodpecker and White-tailed Ptarmigan. It has been a number of years since I have crossed paths with either of these characters.

On the drive up, I plan on stopping by Sleeping Lady Resort and would so appreciate any information on specific locations to look for woodpeckers on the property there (I have searched before with no luck).

I will be in the Cameron Lake area as well and I recall that there is a population towards the northern end of Cameron Lake road. I would be most grateful for any specific locations here.

I plan on finishing up the weekend at Hart?s Pass/Slate Peak and will be looking to photograph White-tailed Ptarmigan. Any specific areas here or is it the usual program for ptarm of just hiking and searching?

I am on Tweeters digest so please reply directly.

Many, many thanks in advance!

Cheers and Good Birding,
