Turkey vultures: 2018
I can’t tell you how many times I have looked to the sky, initially mistaking a turkey vulture for a bald eagle. I was reminded by a long distance viewing last week at Deception Pass that I had this “up close and personal” experience with a few turkey vultures in 2018. They were perched on […]
Baker, tug & Northern Hawk: 2015
Two of my favorite photography subjects — Mt. Baker and a Dunlap tug — are featured in this Guemes Channel scene from June 2015. The Dunlap tug “Port Gardner” is dwarfed by the “Northern Hawk,” vessel under tow from the Anacortes Port District pier.

Among the ships are the Lady Washington and the Hawaiian Chieftain, which is reportedly being sold by the non-profit that operates it and the Lady Washington. The Grays Harbor Historical Seaport […]
