Tweets - We had one really good sighting at Marymoor today, but otherwise it turned out to be a day with few viewing opportunities. The neotropical migrants are few, and they certainly weren't out strutting their stuff today. We heard several, but didn't see many at all. Our good bird was pretty good, though - Marymoor's 4th PECTORAL SANDPIPER was along the slough below the weir.
Highlights: Wood Duck - Five or six males, and a female with nine ducklings at the Rowing Club Vaux's Swift - One over the Pea Patch was the First of Year (FOY) for the survey. Normally, we'd have had them at least for at least the last three weeks Spotted Sandpiper - One below the weir, (FOY) for the survey PECTORAL SANDPIPER - as noted above and below Swainson's Thrush - Singing pre-dawn only, except for one singing at the Rowing Club. Whits were heard in the Dog Meadow Evening Grosbeak - About 6 flew over the Viewing Mound calling
