<font face="KacstOne">Eric Hoffman of Bainbridge Island said in a
Tweeters post several says ago that he is planning a birding
weekend across the mountains in early May. He asked for
suggestions of places to bird, especially places with good habitat
and short walks or hikes.<br>
<br>
The Washington Ornithological Society (WOS) and the American
Birding Association published A Birder's Guide to Washington, 2nd
edition, in 2015. The entire content of the book is available
online for free at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wabirdguide.org">https://wabirdguide.org</a>. <br>
<br>
This is a site guide that describes the best places to bird around
the entire state.<br>
<br>
Places I've enjoyed birding in Eastern Washington include:<br>
<br>
Ahtanum Road to Ahtanum Ridge, Hardy Canyon and Fort Simcoe in
Yakima County<br>
<br>
In Grant County, North Potholes Reserve, Potholes Reservoir and
Potholes State Park, Gloyd Seeps<br>
<br>

Oreille County, the Colville River Valley, including Waitts Lake
and vicinity. Also Chamokane Creek in Stevens County.<br>
