[Carol Riddell]

Hi Tweets,

I have received confirmation of two additional March species, which brings our Edmonds year number up to 125 as of the end of March. They are:

Western Meadowlark (code 3), 1 at Edmonds marsh, 3-16-23.

Wood Duck (code 3), 1 adult female flying along the public pier, 3-28-23.

Good birding,

Carol Riddell
Edmonds WA

> As always, I appreciate it when birders get in touch with me to share sightings, photos, or audio. If you would like a copy of our 2023 city checklist, please request it from checklistedmonds at gmail dot com. (It reflects a species total of 280, including the Nazca Booby.) If eBirders will use the details field for unusual Edmonds birds, it will help us build the city year list. Photographs or recordings are also helpful. The 2023 checklist is posted in the bird information box at the Visitor Station at the base of the public pier. I will update it through March.
