Whidbey Audubon Needs Help with Bird List
Summer Sightings Wanted.
Since we are revising the Whidbey Audubon Society Birds of Whidbey Checklist, we need Whidbey Island summer (June, July, August) sightings of Varied Thrush and Common Nighthawks. If you see either of these species, please send the information to my email listed below. Put Varied Thrush Sighting in the subject line. Include in the information how many individuals were seen and note any activity observed. We don't need a street address but a nearby street intersection, neighborhood or park location will do.

a spotting scope, then took off, heading northwest.

of the chicks 10 days ago.

Sighting Description: This is the second house wren nest on our back porch this year.. We
guess it is the same hen's second batch. The first time she used the platform of our can
crusher. This time she is using our rag bag. Very interesting how she used larger twigs to
make a foundation structure. You can see them sticking out on the nest edges. Each of the
4 eggs is dime size. I saw the first nest jam packed with nestlings but do not know if they
fledged. This is a good year for a second family!
Location: Olympic View Drive, Crockett Lake Estates
Date and time: Sunday, July 12, 1:30 pm

Sighting Description: Ebey's Prairie - Acorn Woodpecker (deceased)
I'm visiting my parents, who live near the Sunnyside cemetery at Ebey's prairie. In their
yard, I found a dead acorn woodpecker associated with a nest hole in a dead tree. It's
probably been dead for a week or so, but is definitely an acorn woodpecker.
Location: S Sherman Rd, near Sunnyside cemetery
Confirmation: Shared picture with Sarah Schmidt, who agreed with identification.
Date and time: July 11, 2023; 8:30 pm

Sighting Description: Possible Chipping Sparrow
We were hiking the trail from Sunnyside cemetery to the Bluff trail at Ebey's Prairie; maybe
halfway out to the bluff. There was a solitary sparrow on the fenceline above the trail.
Sparrow had a solid rufus cap, a clear and light-colored breast, and a line through the eye
with white above. No call was heard. Bird was seen July 10, around 7:30pm. Not refound
morning of July 11. Best match seemed to be Chipping sparrow, which I've seen a few times
but am not very familiar with.
Location: On trail from Sunnyside cemetery to Bluff trail; Ebey's Prairie.
Date and time: July 10, 2023; 7:30pm

Sighting Description: At least 10 Semipalmated Sandpipers and a possible Stint in a group of
several hundred peeps, mostly Western Sandpipers.
The possible stint was a noticeably reddish peep in a flock on a sandbar further offshore.
Heat shimmer and and then, a hunting Peregrine Falcon prevented a positive ID
Location: Crockett Lake west of the pilings
Date and time: 6/8/20 8pm

Sighting Description: Shortly after noon today on the little island in the lake at the west
end of Dugualla Bay I saw two very young downy covered spotted sandpiper chicks. They were
following the parent bird and bobbing their tails. There was also another older juvenile
that did not have spots on its breast but it did have a little bit of downy fluff remaining
on its otherwise feathered body. It was not with the adult and chicks but was on the little
spit that sticks out from the island and it was also doing the tail bobbing. I was not able
to get a photo.
Location: Dugualla Bay-west end
Date and time: 7/8/20 about 12:30 pm

Sighting Description: Although not an unusual species for Whidbey, a Bald Eagle visiting our
backyard birdbath for a drink is a first -- on July 4th no less! Eagle stayed from 8:10-8:20
pm. Periodically it leaned down and dipped its lower bill in the water to drink. My photos
aren't great quality but a good record. Mostly I captured the event in hand-held video, but
a still is included.
Location: 3 miles south of Coupeville
Date and time: July 4, 8:10-8:20 p.m.

Sighting Description: I was driving down Cultus Bay Rd when a large white bird in the marsh
caught my attention. I had my camera and was able to pull over and get a couple of quick
pics of a Trumpeter Swan. I know it's hard to keep track of time in 2023 but I'm pretty
sure it is July. Someone tell this swan! Maybe I'm behind the curve and this is a known
bird?
Location: Cultus Bay/French Rd Marsh

Sighting Description: Not Whidbey, but
close. I have seen a pair of Marbled
Murrelets at the Mukilteo ferry landing
every day this week. Most commonly on the
south side of the dock. If anyone would
like a nice closeup view.
