Linda and Connie,

Louis apparently reported the Eastern Kingbird this morning and a friend of his pointed out the bird to me at about 4pm. Although the Kingbird flew off fairly quickly, it was initially perched on a tree overlooking carp pond.

Connie,

Thanks for that info. It makes me confident that it was in fact an Eastern Kingbird.

 Hey tweets, Linda reports seeing an Eastern Kingbird at the Fill today and wants to know how likely that would be. The answer is: very likely. We usually get one or sometimes even a couple at the Fill every year. They seem to show up most often in June or July. - Connie, Seattle

Hi Tweeters,

I am pretty sure I saw an Eastern Kingbird at the Union Bay Natural Area (Montlake Fill) today. It had a black cap, small black bill, white belly, dark/black back and white at the end of its tail feathers.  It was in a dead tree to the east of the flooded out path.

I’ve seen them before, but always in the eastern part of the country. I don’t know what else it could be, but am open to input, unless of course others have seen it and will verify.
