Hey Tweets,
It's been a couple of weeks, but I have updated my blog to include late April/early May/mid-May trips to Jefferson and Kitsap counties.
https://jkcountybirding.blogspot.com/2024/05/may-15th-mount-walker-jefferson-county.html includes more rambling on white-crowned sparrow dialects. Some digging shows there are nearly a dozen out there! Also, plenty of blurry pictures of warblers with blurry family trees. Quite likely some of the "hermit" warblers that Merlin has been finding out there!
https://jkcountybirding.blogspot.com/2024/05/may-14th-kitsap-county-off-of-my-beaten.html is a Kitsap focused day, including a couple of spots I'd not previously visited, discovering how not to die at the west kingston wetlands, and some good finds on Peninsula no Peninsula.
Cheers,
Tim Brennan
