I grew up in southwest Louisiana where nutria were introduced in the 1930s. We called them the (un)official state rodent. At this time they're wreaking havoc on the state's ecosystem and the southern marshes are crawling with them.
Yet another wonderful story of a species introduced to turn a...

Some people hate 'em, I think they're pretty special.

Another day....another owl.
Found this one in Whatcom Falls Park yesterday evening in the dark and drizzle. Spent about an hour with him, watched him catch and devour parts of two crayfish. He caught one right under me as I stood on the footbridge above the creek.
He acknowledged me and...

Super shots, Harold! I'm a Caspian Tern fan so your first pic grabbed me, and the Cedar Waxwing can't get much better.
As to "my" eagle, it's one of the birds at Semiahmoo. They seem to be well habituated to humans walking/biking/driving the spit and I walked right up to this one on a gray...

Drove through there last month. Pretty awesome to see the scope of the devastation and difficult to comprehend the amount of energy unleashed by the slide as it swept across the valley.

Here's my navel orange, Terry, with a special thanks to Vancouver, BC, for the brown haze filter.

Another welcome to the forum from one of "the boys up north." (I like that)
Don't know how far afield you might want to drive but the area from the Canadian border down to Larrabee State Park, south of Bellingham, hosts a number of eagles throughout the year.
Peak numbers will be here on the...

Super shots, Bill, each and every one!

:D
It would certainly be interesting if someone posted photos of a different one.

I'll go with the dark juvie CAGU, esp. given the company it's keeping w/adult CAGUs.
*The jaeger that we're most likely to see on inland waters is the Parasitic Jaeger, usually following the flocks of Bonaparte's Gulls and Common Terns that come through in spring and fall.

For a wider view, this was taken from Semiahmoo Spit, Sunday evening.
It's fun mooning everybody....:cool:
*Lots of pollution crossing the line from Greater Vancouver.

Nice shot, Rocky. We do live in a wonderful place, don't we? ;)

I was 35 miles away from Mt. Baker, FWIW in this conversation, shooting at approx. 40X.
Like a line from a John Prine oldie...."shoot the moon right between the eyes." :cool:

Here's a sampler from last night's big show. *Digiscoped.
I knew that I could change the angle of view by going north so I shot this from the Semiahmoo Spit. Didn't expect the moon to hide behind Mt. Baker before it popped up, but it did....and that worked for me!

At 8:16 PM, PDT tomorrow, the perigee will be at 221, 904 miles, closest of the year, with 99.5% illumination. Will anyone else be out shooting the moon?
Here's last year's version.

Should be a good one! :)

Yes, she was banded in the Gulf Islands as a chick in May of 2007.

Out on pretty choppy waters in my kayak around 8 PM last night to check on the BLOYs and their pair of six-week-old chicks. Everyone's looking good.

One week later, same time of day, same spot, same Barred Owl. Walked down to the backwater pond and there he was. Pretty dark down in the creek bottom where he perches but he allowed me to walk right up to him....so no cropping necessary.
