In these photos you can see the snow geese flying against the hills in the background. I'm afraid iPhone isn't the best camera to use. But it sure is
Look for white dots, then you will see formations and birds..

These are the snow geese I seem to have scared away. Usually this distance wouldn't scare them. But it's hunting season they are wary.

Trumpeter Swans in the Skagit Valley yesterday
fields with white objects as decoys to lure the birds to shoot them.
The birds were coming in from the south in large beautifully patterned
formations. Againt the back drop of mountains it was simply
exhilarating.
In safe marshlands they landed yet were very wary. I scared them away
when I walked closer but not close to photograph them well. Some seemed to
know it was a safe haven. I'm sorry I scared them away from their food
source. I was surprised they took off with me as far away.
Maybe they could post a sign.
I saw a few hunters with their geese in hand walking out of the marshes.
I also saw a pair of dead mallards in an area where it said, no
hunting allowed. Obviously that was just about killing.

A few paragraphs about my location...Mukilteo Washington
Mukilteo is a small town on the waters of Possession Sound NW of Seattle by 30 minutes.
The Clinton Ferry Transports many of us and visitors to Whidbey Island, to explore it's treasures and those there aboard The Mukilteo Ferry to the mainland to explore ours.
(That Mountain looming in the distance,
some 150 or so miles away is, The Mountain,
as we call it, is a volcano, our very own Mt Rainier)!
This area of the world is beautiful, and variable. A temperate rain forest, trees grow faster here than any place on earth. The Hoh located on The Olympic Peninsula receives somewhere around 150 inches of rain per year, but at Sequim in our banana belt only 17 inches per year.
The tree rings from trees at The Hoh Rain Forest are so large, you can't believe it! Probably a half inch each!
From Whidbey Island which is the 2nd largest island in the US , a ferry is available to take us to The Olympic Peninsula. The small ferry lands after a 30 minute ride at Port Townsend. From there you can drive to Port Angeles and take a ferry to Victoria BC, the capitol of British Columbia, Canada. Or visit the Olympic National Park, Rialto Beach, Shi Shi, Forks WA ,of recent fame, or the stunning Crescent Lake..the list goes on..
From further north of where I live (at Bellingham), you can take the ferry up the inside passage to Alaska. From Anacortez you can take a ferry to The San Juan Islands, Orcas, San Juan, Shaw, and a few others. We are the land of ferry hopping to islands, and we have many more north and south to accommodate our adventures.
We call it God's Country..welcome home!

Harem at Capitol Hill
Art opening tonight
Victoria Landis, (my friend), is the owner of Harem.
She sells tribal rugs, ornate ethnic clothing, jewerly, East India bedspreads, lamps and
pillows and more. Before Christmas gets here..... You should stop by
and pick up some special beautiful gifts. She's delightful. And she can teach belly dancing too!!!
Everything is hand made, you know, all those rugs are hand knotted (80 to 130 knots per Sq inch, imagine) in mysterious foreign lands, you have to go see for yourself,.Take a bundle of money along (or cards) and buy lots of presents at Harem. Lets make sure Victoria stays in business, small retailers are having a hard time!
Tagine on the table in green .. a cooking utensil from Morocco.. I really need a tagine!
( I know you're wondering why I don't make one? Cause I have to get a real tagine from Morocco!
Of course!
Below is the wait person at Dilettante,, she is precious.. always waits on me..
Harem, and The Dilettante...
Cool place. Victoria at Harem at Capitol Hill in Seattle across from
Deluxe Bar and Grill next to the Harvard Exit Theatre, and near Quest
Book Store.
If you want to find Victoria,,her new place is called Harem off Broadway. She lost her space, which is still vacant after almost a year. Here is the article. her address is,
1715 East Olive Way (between Harvard Ave and Boylston Ave)
http://www.capitolhillseattle.com/2010/08/01/harem-becomes-harem-off-broadway
Now if I can locate Dar Salaam who also lost space, in the market, tho.. Moroccan bazaar. I really wanted a domed tagging that he had.
Let me know if you know where he's selling his beautiful wares, etc.
