Nice catch Rocky. The only one I've seen there was hiding in the mud on the other side of the marsh. You're doing great with those green herons!
-
Nice catch, Rocky! The kingfishers are very skittish birds. Looks like a juvenile to me!
-
Looks like it's a dowitcher, thanks for helping me figure out what this was! :) I'll keep watching for them then, since it sounds like migration has started already. When does fall migration typically start?
-
Thanks Rocky. It was also suggested that this could be a long-billed dowitcher, which was my first thought until I looked at my field guide... :confused:
I saw it near the mouth of the slough connecting Lake Washington to the Sammamish river. Here's another photo of it.

I found this bird while kayaking near Lake Washington this evening. Any ideas what it might be?
-
Great shots Rocky! I got some of this nest as well, but they didn't turn out as nice. They've been there for a while, it seems like it's about time for them to fledge.
-
That's some pretty visible aurora considering how far south Mukilteo is, not to mention all the light pollution. I like how you included the lighthouse as well! What time was this taken?
-
Thanks Rocky. That was a great photo op, I'm glad I made the trek out there.

That is a colorful wood duck! You can really see the blue on his feathers. Good job capturing this, Rocky!
-
It was great to meet you too, Rocky! You even got the little grebe yawning! Maybe better luck next time with the green herons ;)
-
It's good to be back after a bit of a break, hopefully I'll be more active after finals are over next week! This afternoon I saw a pied-billed grebe with it's chick. These birds are known to ride on their parents' backs when they're young, but I think this one's outgrown that. Wishing you the...

Great shots, Rocky! What an incredible moment to capture. It was good seeing you this weekend!
-
Looks like there's lots of eagle action lately! Great sequence Bill.
-
What a great view of the kingfisher!

Thanks, Terry. Rocky, I read that sapsuckers incubate for about 13 days, so in a few weeks if all goes well we should see some little mouths for them to feed! :D
-
I found the red-breasted sapsuckers at their nest today at Juanita Bay Park. I initially had the wrong tree, so thank you Rocky for the tip, otherwise I probably would have been waiting for a while at the wrong tree! There's also a second pair working on another nest on the snag to the right of...

One of my favorite springtime visitors!
-
I haven't either, but I've seen some photos of it. Do you know which boardwalk it's on? Hopefully you'll have better luck next time!

Good find, Rocky! Did you see the sapsucker nest?
