At the Seattle Audubon Society you can learn about the birds of Washington. Birds like the one pictured above, a Yellow-billed Cuckoo.
This Cuckoo is “considered extirpated in Washington, but they appear extremely rarely during summer. Yellow-billed Cuckoos are slender, long-tailed birds with white underparts and dark upperparts. They have unstreaked, grayish-brown backs and rufous wings. Their tails have black-and-white bars when seen from below, but from above they show brown with white spots at the edges. Their bills are mostly yellow and curved downward.”
