Anyway, here are some pictures that I took:
Here's the wake of the Guillemot on the glassy early-morning water of the Ship Canal.
Double-crested cormorant drying its wings. (And doing the bat-signal.)
Mr. and Mrs. Common Merganser, perhaps charmed by the cuteness of the vessel, consent to be photographed.
Surf scoters out in Puget Sound.
There was a big flock of western-grebes. We could hear their trilling calls above the hum of the engine.
A pair of bald eagles looks on from Blakely Rock, off Bainbridge Island.
Two pelagic cormorants and three sea lions share a buoy.
Brant on Blake Island.
Brant with Mount Rainier in the background.
A yellow-faced bumblebee, I believe. Spring continues.
If you moor at Blake Island, make sure your boat is secure.
There are curious characters about.
Another pelagic cormorant.
Harlequin ducks, off West Seattle.
