Seattle wildlife watchregional habitat
Eagle bluff, heron water, salmon creek.
Live animal observations can be quiet, so Seattle keeps a curated regional watchlist visible: bluff raptors, tide-line birds, creek salmon, and Sound mammals without exposing exact wildlife locations.

These are route-specific habitat cues drawn from Carkeek Park · Discovery Park · Piper’s Creek · Puget Sound. They are not exact animal-location claims.
Recent iNaturalist observations stay as regional supporting evidence. Seattle’s main story above remains the curated habitat signature, not exact wildlife locations.
