Into the Fog


I went down to the Albion Ferry after work and took a few pictures as the sun was setting...the ferry wasn't running due to ice on the river so it was nice and quiet. The fog was rising up off the water and the air was getting cold with the setting of the sun...

The Eagles are Comming



There are lots of eagles in the trees wating for a free dinner...the dead salmon should be washing up on the banks of the river in the next couple of weeks and then there should be some more action.


On a couple of the rock islands there were a few eagles staking claim.



And some that where waiting for dinner to float by.




This was a miss...better luck next time!

Frogs, Dragonflies and Butterflies












There is a nice little pond at Campbell Valley Park that is filled with frogs in the fall. It is interesting watching the kids with their nets trying to catch things...and their parents telling them not to fall in...the dragonflies were huge and kept taunting me by flying to close for me to focus in on them...I only got a couple of shots of them...if the lighting was better and if I didn't have company with me, I would have liked to have tried for more...patience is a must on that subject...as with most wildlife...you have to wait till the light is good, they are in the right spot and that they will slow down long enough for you to focus the camera and take the picture...at least the frogs stay still!! As the season comes to a close for them...I will have to wait till next year for another shot at them.
