WINGS & WAVES AIRSHOW

Sunday I had a great viewing position to photograph the airshow.  Three stories up and out of much of the smoke.  Here are some of the acts that entertained.  You can google the airshow and identify who and what was going by.

Northwest Wandering - Day 3

We went from Beaverton, OR to Haystack Rock on Cannon Beach, OR.  First we stopped for breakfast on the way and got a couple of birds.

 Steller's Jay

 Northwestern Crow

Caught Haystack Rock at low tide and were fortunate enough to have the fog blow out and give us an hour to photograph the wildlife.

Multiple species nesting together - Gulls, Common Murre, Tufted Puffin, and Pelagic Cormorant
