Dear Tweeters,
On Sunday, probably while getting into or out of the car, I lost my laser pointer somewhere, probably either at the Game Range (Wylie Slough) or at Hayton Reserve. It's black, and about the dimensions of a hefty old-fashioned fountain pen. I'd bought it for a great price in South Korea just a few years ago--not sure this kind of green laser is even available in the US. Its return would be appreciated, although I think the odds of that happening are remote.
I had been hoping to attach the friggin' laser to the head of a friggin' shark, but now I can't--please excuse the pop-culture reference!
Funny, I usually pride myself on being a finder of lost things, not a loser of things. What goes around comes around.
Bird news for today--thanks to Bob Kuntz, I got to see five Bonaparte's Gulls and two Blue-winged Teals at Hayton Reserve. At Ship Harbor/Anacortes Ferry Landing, an Olive-sided Flycatcher was ordering the usual. At my house near Lyman, I was happy to host a Chipping sparrow in the morning, and a singing male Yellow-headed Blackbird all day. When I got home at about 1730, I was greeted first by my first Bullock's Oriole of the year for my yard, plus my first Cedar Waxwing of the year--finally! 
Yours truly,
Gary Bletsch
