I feel bad for you hosers in the south, southwest, and northeast/Atlantic seaboard areas....all that coooooold, awful weather, with ice, snow, snow and ice, ice and ice and ice and ice, and so on...her in Or-EEE-gun, in my area it' blue skies, bloinding sunshine, and currently 50 degrees, headed for an estimate 58 here, perhaps as high at 63 at the Oregon coast....cam ocean, 3-4 foot waves offshore most places from California to Washington...very little wind, just a mere breeze.
I went out yesterday for a 2-hour photo walk at a wildlife refuge in Washougal, Washington, at a place next to the mighty Columbia River...had a rather annoying wind from the east there. Got a few pics of a hawk hovering and hunting, a few frames of a pair of bald eagles circling and then perching in the trees, nothing really great. Was hoping to see some turtles sunning themselves in a spot they normally frequent, but the turtles were a total no-show.
