There was a Summer Tanager at Woodland Bottoms, Cowlitz County, today
around noon. The bird was located in the slough area off Dike Road about a
half mile south of Dike Access Road. The GPS coordinates for the specific
tree are: 45?55'30.1"N 122?47'52.3"W

The pictures are poor, but we had a good look at a large tanager, with a
large bill and head shape matching a Summer Tanager, and no wing bars.It
flew several times and we lost track of it within 20 minutes when the rain
started back up. Hopefully the Flickr links work:

By the way, the fields around Dike Road were loaded with raptors, egrets,
herons, & cranes. Most interesting were 2 Rough-legged Hawks.
