[Tweeters] Port Townsend Birds

[Joan Miller]

Hi Tweets,

Spent a lovely non-birding day yesterday in Port Townsend. While visiting a
friend at the RV park at Point Hudson, I spotted my favorite gull,
Heermann's, among the flock. There was also a group of very vocal swallows,
which turned out to be purple martins! What a nice surprise both were. A
juvenile accipiter landed nearby, causing quite a commotion among the
birds. I haven't decided whether it was a Cooper's or Sharp-Shinned. Lots
of black turnstones and kingfishers too.

At home this morning, I awoke about 4 to hear our local barred owls
babbling loudly to each other like monkeys! Gotta love it!
