Hello,

Today, Mitch Blanton and I birded Whatcom county. We started off from
bellingham and headed north to semiahmoo. Started off at 7:30 and ended
around 4:30. Weather was great all day and we had lots of fun. Here are the
highlights.

Greater White-fronted Goose- 12 on Lummi Flats
Osprey and Coopers hawks nests at Whatcom Falls Park
Sora- responding to playback at Sandy Point
Whimbrel-around 50 on drayton harbor
Cassin's Vireo-still one on Sehome Hill Park
All expected Swallows
House Wren- 3 in clearcut near semiahmoo golf course
Yellow Warbler- 2 in areas that I can't find on google maps so, sorry
Black-headed Grosbeak- 1 at Fairhaven Park

So, we ended up with 112 species for the day which is pretty good for not
going from dawn till dusk, in my opinion. Dark-eyed Junco was the last bird
added to the list when I heard it outside of my dorm at 7 tonight.
Certainly put a scar in us the whole day.

Mamba Out
