Hi Tweets -
8 of us enjoyed a beautiful spring day today at Marymoor - We didn’t turn up any rarities, but it was too pleasant to mind too much.
Highlights included:
Greater White-fronted Goose- still a group hanging out at the weir - getting late for them here
Eurasian Collared-Dove one flew in and perched by the east meadow viewing mound for nice looks.
Wilson’s Snipe - just one still around
Great Blue Heron - at the heronry we heard the ‘grum grum grum’ sounds of new borns - most of the nests appeared to have incubating adults on them
Osprey - after a couple weeks of reports but nothing enduring, they are back repeated display flights, one at the nest and one perhaps building a new nest on the light poles
Bushtit - nice views of a pair attending a nest
Ruby-crowned Kinglets - still a few around, singing
American Pipit - nice flock of 20+ flying around the gravel parking on the north lots
Fox Sparrow - several still singing
Golden-crowned Sparrows - still quite a few around up in trees and singing
Yellow-rumped Warblers - good looks at both Audubon’s and Myrtle
Notable misses included: Ring-necked Duck, Common Goldeneye, Hairy Woodpecker, Brown Creeper, American Goldfinch, Brown-headed Cowbird and any gulls
