[ORyoungbirder] Good birds near the coast

[Joshua Gentry]

Hi all,
I have recently moved to Washington but still have seen some good birds up here.  In particular, I
got a nice shot from 10 feet away of a Heermann's Gull (Larus heermanni)in Sekiu and some Bald
Eagles near there were resting on a rock.  Also I've heard some Great Horned (on Camano Island)
and Barred (in Olympic National Park) owls calling frequently.  A real treat was a Marbled
Murrelet about 25 meters from shore at Camano Island State Park.  Also interesting was a pod of
Orcas swimming past a Gray Whale without incident.  Lots to see and hear!

Happy Birding!

-Josh Gentry
