Hi Tweets,

I thought I'd mention this, as it was surprising to me. Today I was down at
Constellation Park, just south of Alki Beach and saw a large flock of
brant. They were feeding and hanging out, and occasionally took to the air
when a bald eagle flew in. It was lovely to see and hear them. I imagine
they are on their way north. There might have been 100-200 birds.

There was also a flock of peeps, not sure whether they were dunlin.

Spring is happening!
