Back of Photo: Governor Booth Gardner and Alice Bertner looked at some of the 2700 live birds that have been collected for a cleaning process to save them from the deadly effects of an oil spill that has washed up on the Washington coast. She serves as "Director of Rehabilitation" at the bird hospital that has been set up in the Ocean Shores Convention Center. These are some of the healthiest birds. They are in an outdoor test tank to see if they are clean enough to float. If they pass the test, they are to be released in one of three areas: Nisqually Reach (near Anderson Island); Sequim Bay; or Discovery Bay. 660 birds have been hand-washed since December 24. More than 2500 dead birds have also been collected. The governor said bird-cleaning efforts will probably continue through the rest of the month. The birds in this photo are called "murre." AP Writer David Ammons is writing a story telling about the governor's visit. It will move on the wire Wednesday afternoon. Bruce Kellman/News

Back of Photo: The 60-foot, $430,000 Italian-made bending bus enters the Pioneer Square Station area as it makes its way successfully through Metro's downtown Seattle bus tunnel. Metro invited the news media along for a bus ride through their new bus tunnel to prove that their new Dual-power buses could fit. Joe Siesling, 22 years with Metro, drove the bus through the tunnel and mentioned there was lots of room, three foot of clearance on each side of the bus. Metro has ordered 236 of the dual-powered buses and when they are all in service, they will replace 40% of the buses operating on the streets. Photo by Russ Carmack
