Today's walk started out with this spectacular.....
complete rainbow over the estuary..... Unfortunately things tended to go a bit downhill from there
over at the log bay nothing but a few gulls. No ducks, no heron, no eagles...and why? Well perhaps the fact that hidden behind the bushes there were people down on the foreshore....
At least today there was lots of activity along the path....
look closely and there is a Spotted Towhee (one of many), a Song Sparrow and three Dark-eyed Junco in this little stretch of path.
another area had Varied Thrush, a late lingering robin, chickadees.....
and more Spotted Towhees.
Out on the flats there was a distinct lack of eagles....only thing visible were....
gulls.....so many gulls it looked like it had snowed out there! By the way that object on the flats is one of 2 stone rings. No one seems to really know what they are or how they got there. The best answer I've heard was from first nations who said they were 'Sasquatch birthing rings'!
only other birds seen were these crows.....and I think there is one Killdeer down at the bottom of the picture right beside a little log....
Could part of the reason for the lack of ducks, herons, eagles etc. be....
yet somebody else who doesn't 'get it'....there is no trail to that point beside the piling....the only way to reach this area of the foreshore (where no one should be) is to walk right through the water that is full of actively spawning salmon....
