I encountered this eagle Wednesday morning, perched on a tree just over the Deception Pass Bridge on the Fidalgo Island side. Another eagle was perched high on a snag on the other side of the highway.

Mallards, emerald waters

I love this time of year with fall light/temperature and the return of many birds including mallard ducks. This male and female mallard were part of a larger group finding plenty to eat on a Fidalgo Island pond.

Canoe Pass kayaker: 2004

This was a good day. The sun was just right when a group of kayakers in training approached Canoe Pass.

Mixed use area: Bowman

As demonstrated in this photo, Fidalgo Island’s Bowman Bay serves a wide array of Northwest adventurers, from beach walkers to kayakers. Also a draw at the park are picnic tables, interpretive center, shoreline trails and children’s play area. Oh, and we can’t forget the public restrooms!

Birds make my day

My walks/hikes always find me scanning for birds, high and low. This representation of three outings includes an osprey, bald eagle, house finch, red wing blackbird and sandpiper.

Churning waters

Waves on the rocks. It was considerably more windy on top of Rosario Head than it was when I left the parking lot. A “hang onto your hat” afternoon.
