On this trip we will be searching the Skagit County lowlands for whatever interesting birds have been spotted lately. We will hopefully see trumpeter swans, snow geese, bald eagles, rough-legged hawks, northern harriers, red-tailed hawks, American kestrels, short-eared owls, and search for the other, less common raptors such as peregrines, gyrfalcons and merlins. The trip will begin and end at the Alger Park & Ride, I-5 Exit 240. We will carpool in three cars while we search for birds. Bring water, hot  beverages, snacks and lunch to eat on the run. Dress to keep dry and warm and bring binoculars and a spotting scope if you happen to have one.
