Daily Observations

Least Sandpiper

Today was one of the nicest days all summer to this point.  As nice as it was, I ended up spending much of the day inside working on catching up on photos in the morning then attending the Paths Across the Pacific in the afternoon. I took a brief walk through Totem Park just after high tide to see if I could find any shorebirds.

Weather:  Sunny and warm with a light breeze.

Birds:  There was a lone Least Sandpiper on the battleground beach at Totem Park.

Flora:  Pacific Hemlock-parsley is blooming at the park.  Fireweed is also reaching its peak blooming.
