[Tweeters] Edmonds Yellow Billed Loon Parking

[Carol Riddell via Tweeters]

Hi Tweeters,

The Yellow-billed Loon has been continuing intermittently for a little more than three months now. It is molting into alternate plumage so will probably remain until its molt is complete. Please be aware of parking issues at the Water Street public access (called Ocean Avenue in eBird). There is designated parking for about four vehicles on that road. All the rest of it is signed “No Parking.” The neighbors can be testy about illegally parked vehicles and when they call the Edmonds Police, they get a quick response. The parking ticket is $40. If you are scoping in a no parking area for an hour or two at a time, you will make it difficult for those few of us who regularly bird from that location and will be doing so long after the loon has moved on. So please be respectful of the neighborhood and the parking signage. Thanks.
