It was a very nice day, but still a little cold. But, spring is on it's way! :barb

    Easily one of the prettiest places I've been.

    Nice series of birds too. I didn't pay enough attention to them when I was there.

    The Bald Eagles are starting to appear all up and down the Skagit, and the Nooksack rivers. In greater numbers than many years past! Thanks for a tour of the Skagit Valley. Getting close to Tulip time there. Nice shot of Baker.

    Yep, the Pacific Northwest is a beautiful place. Thanks for the comments!

    Yeah, we saw dozens of bald eagles. But, not too many close enough to photograph. Some fields have tulips breaking through the ground already, so it won't be long. Thanks!
