Meet at 7:30 AM at the Quil Ceda Village Walmart lot west of Marysville (I-5 exit 200). Park away from the store, to the east, near Quil Ceda Blvd. (next to I-5). The tide should be right for a morning visit to Kiket Island. Other stops likely will include Channel Drive, Simik Beach, Pioneer Park in La Conner, Swinomish Casino and March Point. There should be a good selection of water and woodland birds, and maybe even a Rufous Hummingbird.
