[Tweeters] Seattle big white birds

[Doug Santoni]

Alan / Tweets —

Those two immature Snow Geese have been around for much of the winter; I’ve seen them just offshore from both West Montlake Park / Seattle Yacht Club and from East Montlake Park / Marsh Island.  They seem very attached to the Canada Geese with which they often associate!

The Trumpeter Swans at Montlake Fill are big enough to be viewable even from the south side of Union Bay, from Foster Point (on Foster Island).

These big white birds are welcome winter visitors!
