Everyone has been commenting on how spectacular the fall colours have been this year, and despite the wind and rain we've had recently,
they are still hanging on. We got for a nice walk today before the next weather maker moved in.
there were actually a lot of birds in the area but this Song Sparrow is about the only one I managed to capture.
further along....
the new Bald Eagle pair were perched close to their new nest which is taking place beautifully, unlike the one up the other side of the dyke.
Out on the river....
a flock of Mallards were about the only thing visible. Noticed there was a lot less boat traffic today so maybe if it stays that way we will start seeing more out in the water.
there were a few gulls, this one a Glaucous-wing Gull which is the most common in our area.
Earlier in the day we had walked over to the park....
and I was pleased to manage a few good photos of this Varied Thrush. Wasn't so lucky with the Brown Creeper, Robins, Gold-crowned Kinglets and Black-capped Chickadees all in the same spot!
Oh.....and I think I mentioned how pleased I was to see that parks had put up rope barriers to keep people away from the waters edge....
well, that was how much good they did!
