For some reason, no one has updated Tweeters, so here I am. Several birders have looked, but no Ovenbird is anywhere to be found this PM. Perhaps it'll be heard again in the morning, if it hasn't already moved on? We can hope!

Good birding, Joshua Glant
Mercer Island, WA

Turn left and walk about 75 feet to a run down fence. Take the right fork, go about 150 ft and start listening. On the left side of the trail there is snow-drift fencing enclosing the area where the bird was heard. If you get to the chainlink fence enclosing buildings that service the resesrvoir, you've gone too far. Good luck, these skulkers are much easier heard than seen.
