This morning a Northern Mockingbird perched briefly on a utility pole on the west side of the Edmonds marsh. It then flew off to the top of a sailboat mast in a dry dock area just west of the railroad tracks. From there I watched it fly to the top of a tall tree along Admiral Way and then into the parking lot trees of the marina. ID photos are in this checklist:

It looked like a bird on the move. Whether it stays around the marina or Marina Beach Park is anyone's guess.

Northern Mockingbird is a code 5 species for Edmonds, last seen in January 2014 in a north Edmonds neighborhood. That bird was chaseable because it was winter and it was feeding in holly trees.
