Can it get any wetter?!!

It is absolutely horrible out there!  It has been pouring continually since yesterday’s walk.  At 4 pm yesterday afternoon the temperature was at 0c, by 10:00 pm last evening, it had climbed to 7c….today we’ve held pretty steady at 4c.

Wet

The snow is rapidly melting…being replaced by water…

Rising water

the rise in water levels I mentioned yesterday, are very obvious today.

disappearing fltats

gravel flats are rapidly disappearing under the rising water…

Eagles in the gloom

as for birds…well you can see there are a few Bald Eagles out there in the gloom – but not 1 single duck.  One Herring Gull and one Glaucous-wing gull and I heard a few Gold Crown Kinglets in the bushes….that was it.
