One of the chief reasons we went on a winter birding trip to the Skagit Valley was to take a trip on the Skagit River to view migrating eagles. We knew weather in January was likely to be, well, weather in January. In Washington state that usually includes precipitation. And it did. We were glad it wasn’t snow. We arrived early and, uhm, enjoyed this view from the car.
Lest you think all was lost, the river was beautiful.
Rain never leaves me with that ‘all is lost’ feeling Kay.. oh what I would give for a touch of precipitation right now 😀😀 happy weekend.
That’s so sad! Sitting in the car in the rain. The eagles were probably hiding in the trees to avoid the rain, but yes, the river is very beautiful.
The river certainly is a welcome sight!
A familiar scene for us, good ole rain. 🙂 The river scene is pretty, love seeing the moss on the rocks.
Sorry to hear about the rain.
I never follow this advice, but some days we just have to put our cameras away and store the scenes away in our memories.
Wow — the river looks amazing! I love the idea of a winter birding excursion.
