I, like so many others, enjoyed finding and getting distant but acceptable photos of the EMGO from the March PT S viewpoint and from the closer point behind the Swinomish Casino.
Yesterday people starting to cross the RR tracks to get better photos.

This is completely illegal and somewhat dangerous and the fine from Burlington Northern can be hefty.

Also it is not clear to me the ownership of the spoil islands, but at least some of them are WDFW and hold active hunting activities

I have yet to see a professional photographer in the bunch so let's mind the rules that are specified in e-birding protocols and not trespass
