A few interesting sightings

 A couple of days of nice weather and we've managed to see a few interesting things....


not that Bald Eagles are that interesting these days....but this shot, taken this morning, just sort of sets the scene.

There were a lot of these little guys this morning....


Golden-crowned Kinglets.....we've been seeing them almost every morning lately. There were Black-capped Chickadees with them, but none of them cooperated for a photo.


there were, however, a number of Varied Thrush.


He wasn't there this morning, but most days we've seen or heard at least one Hairy Woodpecker....this male was yesterday.

Over at Harrison Bay....


it was a 'Great Blue Herons on pilings' sort of day!  With a total of 9 of them on assorted pilings in the river.  Three here....


another couple here.....



and even one here on the metal piling....

But maybe the best sighting was....


a pair of Wood Ducks!  This being the male....


and this, the female.


there were also two pair of Mallard in the same secluded spot....this being one pair.
