Needs List:
Not a needs list anymore, but a "missed birds" list.
Code 1 birds needed: (94 seen)
- Bohemian Waxwing (seen late in the year, I believe at Bridgeport)
Code 2 Birds (63 seen)
- American Avocet (none reported for the year on eBird)
Code 3 birds (37 seen)
- Greater Sage-Grouse (sightings near Mansfield, mostly East of town if you're looking)
- Sharp-tailed Grouse (Two sightings at Big Bend! Just none for me)
- Vaux's Swift (there was at least one sighting near East Wenatchee, but I still think that North of Grand Coulee is the place to look)
- Rufous Hummingbird (just 4-5 birds reported all year, and Jerry from East Wenatchee noted that they were absent from his feeder)
- Semipalmated Plover (none this year)
- Black Tern (none this year, and actually it was hard to even find eBird sightings)
- Black-crowned Night-Heron (One was seen in the fall at Porter's Pond)
- Barn Owl (just a miss. They're out there, but I didn't start early enough, thinking I'd just stumble across one. Bridgeport Bar would have been a fine spot, and birds were indeed seen there in late fall/winter)
- Gyrfalcon (several sightings on the plateau - all hidden from eBird)
- Gray-crowned Rosy-Finch (Several sightings on the plateau, including a repeat sighting on some powerlines near St. Andrews)
- Common Redpoll (a few sightings here and there on the plateau)
Additional code 4/5 birds seen during the year:
White-winged Scoter and Surf Scoter: BOTH at Jameson Lake in December and November respectively.
Long-tailed Duck: March, seen from Okanogan
Red-breasted Merganser: several sightings between Banks Lake and the Columbia
Clark's Grebe: Late February on the Columbia - 4 of them!
Black-bellied Plover: Waterville STP in fall
Parasitic Jaeger: September near East Wenatchee
Short-billed Gull, Sabine's Gull, Iceland Gull, Glaucous Gull: September for the Sabines, and winter months for the others. I was just lacking a really good spot to look over many gulls. And skill.
Forster's Tern: May - not surprisingly on the Columbia nearly in Grant County
Yellow-billed Loon: Whoops, didn't chase it. I was up on Badger Mountain, picking up owls and finches that morning!
American Bittern: Waterville STP spring
Harris's Sparrow, White-throated Sparrow, and... Clay-colored Sparrow? Not sure on the last, but the others were picked up at various times early in the year.
Barred Owl: Grr.
Pacific-slope Flycatcher: June, East Wenatchee.
Blue Jay: Early in the year - Bridgeport. This would have been a new state bird for me. I'm sure I'll get that one eventually!
I may have missed something here, but clearly there were a lot of good birds I missed! That was to be expected.
