[Tweeters] THE WASHINGTON POST: Baby birds of prey have leaped from their nests to escape West’s extreme heat

[Steve Hampton]

wow-- and Seattle's Caspian Terns too. I'm happy to report that my local
Merlin and Red-tailed Hawk nests in Port Townsend each seem to have fledged
at least one.

One thing curious, while juvenile California and Heermann's Gulls are
arriving, I've yet to see a juvie Olympic/Gl-W Gull.  Is it too early?
