Hi Everyone, The Thick-Billed Murre is back -- wasn't there at 7:30 a.m. but was there at 8:30 a.m. The bird is easily seen from the walking path along the west side of the Delta Inn, right behind the "red" condo building next to the Delta and from the parking lot at the back of the Marriott Residences Inn. It appears to have some broken feathers on its left wing -- not sure if this is because of the wind or because of an injury. The bird is quite striking and actively feeding.
