With a good two day forecast, I decided to make the drive down to Nisqually NWR. Wednesday mornings there is a guided bird walk which I really enjoyed. Then after lunch I continued south to Ridgefield NWR. Ridgefield has a wonderful four mile auto tour route which gave me great looks at many species of waterfowl. Right now there are thousands of Cackling Geese using the refuge. I also got my first of the year Cinnamon Teal and Wilson's Snipe.
