Hooded Merganser

Hooded Merganser

What can I say? I think the Hooded Merganser is one of the coolest birds around. Style-wise, that is. Another shot taken at the Nisqually Natural Wildlife Refuge (AKA Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge).

A reminder:

I have a book available on the Kindle site. It is a memoir titled 60 Years of Hiking in the Olympics. It has over 100 photographs and covers more than 100 different hikes and backpacks. I have it priced to share at $2.99 (US).

Geese Taking Off

Geese Taking Off

I saw this small group of geese taking off at the Nisqually Natural Wildlife Refuge (AKA Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge) just east of Olympia, WA. There were thousands (?) on the ground there, but these five seemed to have a group of their own.

Cinnamon Teal

A Pair of Cinnamon Teal

One of my favorite ducks is the cinnamon teal. I think the coloration is great … and the little beady red eyes remind me of a couple early mornings when I didn’t get enough sleep. I found these at the Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge outside Olympia, Washington.
