[Tweeters] Edmonds Rounup - November 2021

[Carol Riddell]

Hi Tweets,

All of the new year bird sightings for November were seen along the Edmonds waterfront: a Short-eared owl (code 4), 11-3-21; a Tundra Swan (code 4) 11-7 and 11-17-21; a Red Phalarope (code 5) 11-16-21; two Northern Fulmars (code 5) 11-18-21.

Other sightings of note of species already on our year list: There were multiple reports of Trumpeter Swans (code 4) along the waterfront from 11-5-21 to 11-21-21. Two Greater White-fronted Geese (code 3) were reported in the Edmonds Lake Ballinger neighborhood 11-10-21. A single White-throated Sparrow (code 3) frequented a Pine Ridge neighborhood yard for much of November.

We have 192 species on our 2021 year list as of November 30th. I am always grateful to those of you who share your Edmonds sightings with me. It helps us keep an accurate count of our year birds and our rare birds. Thank you! If you would like a copy of our 2021 city checklist, please request it at checklistedmonds at gmail.com <mailto:checklistedmonds at gmail.com>.

The checklist of year birds is updated and available for viewing in the bird information box on the wall of the Olympic Beach Visitor Station.
