HUZZAH!

An absolutely perfect day spent in LaConner. We rounded a curve at the edge of town and were greeted by at least one thousand snow geese, phenomenal! The sun was breaking through the dark clouds so we experienced a beautiful sight. The flock flew up and shifted through the skies like shreds of sparkle against dark clouds then hundreds of tiny black specks changing in shapes and washing across the white canvas. I could never have captured it on film. We followed it for as long as we could.

Our day was starting fine. We then went to a local wildlife preserve and saw at least 50 tundra swans, beautiful long necks, heavy bodies, saw them in flight directly over our heads. And if that wasn't enough, saw great blue herons, bald eagles, hawks and enormous turkeys.
