I was on a walk on Tommy Thompson Trail, Fidalgo Bay behind me, when I noticed many small birds flitting about in trees and bushes beside me. I tried to locate a bird to focus on … when I spotted directly in front of me the familiar “hovering” motion of a hummingbird! This little guy worked the blossoms of a bush for a minute or so before disappearing into the woods. I particularly like the “southbound hummer” shot. Enjoy.
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.
