Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge - 9:57 a.m. 5/16/2009

Ridgefield NWR manages four sites, one in the Roth Unit and three on Bachelor Island. Although there are many martins to fully populate the gourds that are hung up each year, few find their way to the Auto Tour Route on the River “S.” Sometimes one or two can be seen on the Kiwa Trail. Keep your eyes open for these large, dark purple swallows. This is Migration time. A number of unusual/rare sightings have been seen over the last month on the River “S” Unit. Following is a list of some of them: Blue-winged Teal, Redhead, Eared Grebe, American White Pelican, Black Swift, Nashville Warbler, Black-throated Gray Warbler, Pacific-slope Flycatcher, and Greater White-fronted Goose. Some of the other not-so-common birds seen were the Anna’s Hummingbird, Orange-crowned Warbler, Townsend’s Warbler, Wilson’s Warbler, Yellow Warbler, Peregrine Falcon, Vaux’s Swift, and Bullock’s Oriole. This is a beautiful time at the refuge. Why don’t you come and enjoy that beauty? Noel Johnson - Woodland, WA Noel@lewisriver.com http://www.lewisriver.com/

Swallows back. - 7:47 a.m. 3/15/2007

My neighbors go to Mexico for the winter. They were due back on the 15th of March 2007. I mentioned to my wife that the swallows usually come back at about that time too. What do you know, they both came back three days early on exactly the same day. The other day on the way to town there was an American Eagle eating a road killed rabbit. I got right up close before the eagle flew up into a tree nearby. I am totally amazed at how big and beautiful they are. I am happy that we have a pair of spotted towhees at the bird feader this year. Noel Johnson - Woodland, WA Noel@lewisriver,com http://www.lewisriver.com/birdsightingreports/
