? Hi all,
Delia and I took an afternoon trip over to Lake Sammamish which we cut short she's a bit sick.
The shots are here:

We had a Green Heron, many singing Purple Finch and almost as many Rufous Hummingbirds as I hoped for.? I was very?alarmed to not see Tree Swallows until we saw some extremely high and out of ear-shot at the end of the walk.? I'm hoping they were just foraging above the Merlin-line today because they could.? I think we heard a Hutton's Vireo?but it shut up too soon for our untrustable (new word) ears.

There are a lot of changes at Lake Sammamish State Park that have been happening quite recently and what?shocked and surprised me is that they seem to be for the better. Where?was?my faith.
