Gentle eve — a blanket of grey spread across the 4 directions. Calls of the sea lions & gulls pierce the air. A lone #kayaker nears shore, homeward bound. #SalishSea vibe. No wind. No rain. #wawx Golden Gardens #Seattle #Saturday Just past sunset.

Trumpeter #swans search for nutritious tidbits in a muddy farm field in #SkagitValley #WA, their murmuring voices calming to hear. Once thought to be nearing #extinction, they have made a comeback 🦢. May their numbers increase🙏. Identification via @MerlinBirdID #birds
