[Tweeters] Edmonds Roundup: August 2024

[Carol Riddell via Tweeters]

Hi Tweeters,

With August additions we have reached 184 for our Edmonds 2024 list. In taxonomic order, the new species are:


Baird’s Sandpiper (code 3), 2-3 at the waterfront (photo ID), 8-10-24.

Pectoral Sandpiper (code 3), 4 at Edmonds marsh (critical field marks described), 8-24-24.

Short-billed Dowitcher (code 4), 2 at Edmonds marsh (photo ID), 8-31-24.

Ring-billed Gull (code 3), at the waterfront (photo ID), 8-19-24.


As always, I appreciate it when birders get in touch with me to share sightings, photos, or recordings. It helps us build our collective year list. If you would like a copy of our 2024 city checklist, with 281 species, please request it from checklistedmonds at gmail dot com. The 2024 checklist, with sightings through July, is in the bird information box at the Olympic Beach Visitor Station at the base of the public pier.

Good birding,
