Trail’s end, Fidalgo shoreline
This small patch of flat green earth has been the destination of many hikers in Skagit County’s Sharpe Park on Fidalgo Island. Those who reach it take in a sweeping view to the west, and rugged cliffs to the north and south.
Eagles in the neighborhood
I noticed today on a Facebook post the frustration expressed by a photographer who discovered only one eagle on an Upriver Skagit outing. These four photos are all taken “in the neighborhood” over the past few days, two at sites seasonally occupied by ospreys. Two lakeside, two near saltwater shores. I can never get […]

I saw kayakers, paddleboarders, horseback riders, hikers, boaters and beach walkers. They were young, old … families and friends. I saw cameras, cellphones and binoculars, all being utilized to add images to memory […]
