Sol Duc Beauty
The Sol Duc River splits into these three tails making the falls. This is just the very top of the falls. It’s one of my favorite falls in the area.

These adorable merganzer chicks were having trouble keeping up with their mom.
Magic fog
Just before dusk on a stormy afternoon the fog was dipping in and out of the valleys in the foothills of the Olympic Mountains.
Mt Baker shining thru
Mt Baker was the only thing in sunlight this am the other 270 of view was BLACK CLOUDS. It stayed this way for over 4 hours. That is Whidbey island in the foreground
Marina in the Mist
It has been SOOOO foggy here recently. I feel like I’m constantly walking in a cloud. From my living room I watch the fog/mist/clouds envelope and release John Wayne Marina all morning
Rest my tail feathers
One of my resident baldy’s came down to rest on the piling in front of my house. He’d been in a 20 minute tussle with several gulls that were pulling at his tail feathers. It always amazes me to see this because eagles routinely EAT GULLS.
My motto is don’t poke the bear…but it seems these gulls had had enough!
