<div dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: inherit;">I don’t have CATE colony information, but I do live under one of their flight paths. I am between Golden Gardens and Carkeek Park in NW Seattle, and last year I would hear them daily flying directly overhead,
southbound, after sunset. I haven’t been able to listen for them as frequently this year, but they’ve still been making the route when I’ve been out at the right time. I hope this bit of data helps for whomever might be collecting it!</span><br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size: large; color: rgb(7, 55, 99);">1) Besides the colony at Rat Island (Fort Flagler area), is anyone aware of other active Caspian Tern colonies in Puget Sound right now? </div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size: large; color: rgb(7, 55, 99);">2) I'm hearing about a banded Glaucous-winged (or more likely Glaucous-winged x Western) Gull nesting in Kitsap. Does anyone know who may have been banding them (at least 4 years ago)?
I know many Western Gulls are banded on the Farallones, but I'm not aware of Gl-W or Olympic Gull banding. thx, </div>
