Yesterday (1.14.26) there was a RED FOX SPARROW at the edge of the Green<br>
River, along Frager Rd, just south of the barn & S 204th St:<br>

This is but a few feet from where I saw a RED FOX SPARROW on November 4 of<br>
last year.<br>

Tweets - I was warm (49-52 degrees) with a high overcast and no<br>
precipitation after some pre-dawn mist. No fog, and only a little wind.<br>
Except for waterfowl, it wasn't terribly birdy, but we did get sufficient<br>
cameo appearances to make our species total okay.<br>
<br>
Highlights:<br>
Trumpeter Swan - Five flew right over our heads calling!<br>
Eight species of duck - Green-winged Teal was our obvious miss<br>
Anna's Hummingbird - One displaying, a couple of others singing, and<br>
by the end we'd seen ~10<br>
Virginia Rail - Matt heard them "singing" - Kiddick-kiddick - pre-dawn<br>
Killdeer - One heard calling pre-dawn was, I believe, our first since<br>
early November<br>
Red-breasted Sapsucker - One incessantly calling (and finally seen)<br>
near the concert venue restrooms. Our first since September!<br>
Northern Shrike - Adult in the south end of the East Meadow<br>
Bewick's Wren - Much singing, few sightings<br>
House Finch - Maybe only two, but one was singing complete songs<br>
Song Sparrow - Much singing<br>
Lincoln's Sparrow - Two together in the SE part of the East Meadow<br>
Red-winged Blackbird - Only a couple, but they produced perhaps their<br>
full repertoire of sounds<br>
<br>
Sparrow numbers were low, with maybe just 1-2 FOX SPARROW, 1 WHITE-CROWNED<br>
SPARROW and 5-6 GOLDEN-CROWNED SPARROWS.<br>
<br>
Misses today included Green-winged Teal, Ring-billed Gull (though the flock<br>
of 125-150 gulls was never observed on the ground), Hairy Woodpecker,<br>
Red-breasted Nuthatch, and Purple Finch.<br>
<br>
For the day, 52 species.<br>

Inspired by an August 2011 National Geographic article on the Spirit Bear, by wife Dory and I visited last September what is now called the Great Bear Rainforest. This is a area set aside to preserve old growth forests through a collaborative agreement. This
rainforest runs along the west coast of British Columbia, and is the largest tract of unspoiled temperate rainforest on earth. We put together a video of highlights of this area including some of the birds and mammals, which is probably of interest to you
in the Tweeters community. This is an inspiring natural area! Exploring the Great Bear Rainforest:
