Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
This large glacier in the high Arctic is melting off into three waterfalls. You can see it feeding silt into the water which the shrimp and fish like…And the Puffins really like the eat those! This island has one of the highest concentrations of breeding Atlantic Puffins in the world.
This Great Blue heron has been consistently hanging out at this farm about 1/2 mile away from the wildlife ponds of three crabs road. There is no water here..we can’t figure it out…
So you’ve heard about my relentless pursuit of Mr. Kingfisher…
I actually got this shot the same day but at the marina. Kingfishers are always here and they like to fly back to the tops of the masts.
Two eagles on watch near dungeness.
I really should go hit the 7 Winds Casino down the street…
First I got the Kingfisher, then a week later I got this Redwing Blackbird in flight. He too, I have been chasing for 7 years. I have plenty of shots of both of them sitting pretty on branches or fences. But catching either of them in flight is HARD. They are both fast, and to make things worse, Redwings fly in and out of cat tails which makes it crazy hard to keep focus.
To make things harder this bog with cat tails is right next to Hwy 101. So you have to fight the wind from cars blowing past.
This was our ship in the Arctic –the Poseidon…Have they not seen the movie.
Can you find the April fools joke?
These love birds (with a Brunnich’s Guillemot peeping tom below) were doing a reunited beak dance. Each time one came back to the nest they would rub their beaks together back and forth.
I took this at Alkefjellet in the Arctic.
