Molly and I are in Seattle. Our youngest son recently accepted a job as a robotics engineer with Amazon. Since we are fully vaccinated, we decided to visit. Given I am on a different side of the Rockies, I am looking forward to seeing some different birds. Tomorrow morning I will take a walk with the local Audubon group at Marymoor Park. This morning I walked the neighborhood. I found a Pied Grebe with newly hatched chicks. In addition, the Bald Eagle seemed interested in the chicks as they are not yet able to dive and escape predators from above. The local crow population took exception to the eagle’s presence.

While I am out west, all images are offloaded and processed on my tablet … a bit more challenging than using my PC, but much more portable and lighter. I use the Android app Snapseed to edit my photos (minor light corrections and crops).
