[Tweeters] Fwd: S 204th in Kent ; 8.18.22

[Marv Breece]

There was another large movement of passerines today at S 204th St in Kent. Mostly Chestnut-backed Chickadees, Black-throated Grey Warblers, Yellow Warblers and a few Warbling Vireos. And whatever I missed. It went on for over 30 minutes. 

Shorebirds included 7 LB Dowitchers, 12 Least Sandpipers, 2 Western Sandpipers and a Lesser Yellowlegs. 
Also all 3 teal in the pond (west of the horse track). 

And the Red-shouldered Hawk continues.

I had a banner morning at S 204th St (west of Frager Rd) in Kent today. Tallied 45 species while standing on the road. The RED-SHOULDERED HAWK (Day #11) was in view almost the entire time, from 7AM-11AM. The trees were loaded with passerines. WARBLERS included: ORANGE-CROWNED, YELLOW, BLACK-THROATED GRAY & COMMON YELLOWTHROAT. Along with BLACK-CAPPED CHICKADEES, there were several CHESTNUT-BACKED CHICKADEES, a species I had never before seen at this location. GREAT BLUE HERON, GREEN HERON and AMERICAN BITTERN showed themselves. Shorebirds were well represented with KILLDEER, LONG-BILLED DOWITCHER - 4, GREATER & LESSER YELLOWLEGS & 6 WESTERN SANDPIPERS. There may also have been a LEAST SANDPIPER.
