Dear Tweeters,

Some other birders told me today, the third of March, that both the Gyrfalcon and the Prairie Falcon were present on the Samish Flats today. I myself did not try to see them, but I was told they were in the same places where they'd been seen a few weeks ago, along Bay View-Edison Road near Sullivan Road.

There was a flock of Dunlin with 18 Black-bellied Plovers today, visible from the Samish West Ninety. The birds were between there and the T-90.

At the Game Range on Fir Island, I was able to find one Tree Swallow.

In general, there were lots of birds to see today, unlike the last two days, during which the rains made birding rather challenging. Canada Geese and Trumpeter Swans were on the move in several places.

Yours truly,

Gary Bletsch
