I wasn’t exactly speedwalking … too many distractions offshore this morning on the Guemes Channel. Among birds who cooperated for photos were mergansers, loons, golden eyes and scoters. No cooperation whatsoever from a hummingbird that teased me briefly before headed for upland trees. An island wonderland.

Only one angle available on this late afternoon scene at Fir Island Farms Reserve. A beautiful day for a drive.
