Skagit Valley Tulip Festival
Skagit Valley is just a hop, skip, and a ferry ride away. The flower fields are gorgeous. I was just about a week early for the tulips. But the daffodils shined their happy faces my direction!
Wildlife Wednesday-Amazon Howlers
This male was very protective of the younger howlers.
Not just Tulips–Go Daffodils!
I arrived early enough to the Skagit Valley Tulip festival to catch a few fields of daffodils in all their glory.
Skagit is just a few hours away by ferry.
Keebler Elves At Lake Crescent?
This log with the interesting natural top was at Lake Crescent. It just reminded me of an elf house. So I digitally added the ladder. The elf approved.
I’m Just Ducky…
I had fun watching these two ducks at Lake Crescent. They did everything in perfect synchronization. It was like watching duck synchro swimming!
Skagit Valley Tulip Festival
It was just barely blooming when I went this year (April 5th) this year– I went to a new smaller garden right next to the big ones. It was called Garden Rosalyn. It was all sculpted with beautiful wavy lines. There were no big fields. It was beautiful. I can only imagine when in full bloom.
I turned this into a Van Gogh style painting.
