Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
Salt Creek Park never fails for a good tide pooling experience. They havea a FANTASTIC county park campground here. THe RV spots are parking lot style with strait views. But the rest of the spots have good separation, and THIS is the backyard!
I sat on my bike and watched this Heron for about a 20 minutes. In that time the tide rose from his “knees” to his tail feathers.
Taken at the bay in Port Orchard with my Panasonic point and shoot.
While on our WOW ride to Bayview WA through all the farmland, I saw this in my mirror and thought…”I wonder if I can take a picture without crashing?”
The answer YES! I took about 8 before I got a good angle…definitely was a challange not to drive off the road or get hit by passing trucks.
My son is quite convinced that I will end my days backing off a cliff, being swept down a river or driving off a road all with a camera in my hand.
BUT, I can think of worse ways of going….
We are so used to seeing Herons down in the marsh or bay. But this Heron and its mate were up at the TOP of the trees in Port Orchard. (Take with Pansonic point and shoot on my WOW ride)
