More often than not, my photo adventures include an element of walking, hiking and climbing. Not so with this experience! I pulled into the entrance of the Breazeale Interpretive Center in Bayview Sunday when this beautiful hawk landed on a light pole just ahead of me. He stayed a few minutes for “portraits” before taking to flight, heading toward Padilla Bay. Grateful for the cooperation.
A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
