Connor and Rowan brought back a couple of silver salmon from fishing down by the Sheldon Jackson hatchery.

Totem Park on a Rainy Sunday
Marge Ward told me she saw a Golden Eagle at the park this morning, so I braved the rain to see if it was still around. I just found a young juvenile Bald Eagle. There were Pholiota mushrooms in abundance on a fallen alder where I had seen them a couple of years ago (prior to it falling).
Tufted Puffin
Had a chance to get out with a couple of visitors on a tour with Jim Seeland of Sitka Sound Tours. They were interested in seeing birds out on the water and so Jim asked me to come along. The weather wasn’t particularly pleasant out in the sound, so we stuck to inside waters south of town where I was able to photograph this Tufted Puffin in Redoubt Bay.
Fishing for Pinks
Pinks are in at the Sheldon Jackson hatchery, and Connor was pretty enthusiastic about catching them.
Connor’s Catch
