A perfect, crisp, clear fall day is here… perfect for watching various wildlife in Leland harbor: salmon swimming and jumping upriver, heron swooping over the breakwater, gulls flying about. Best wishes on this Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples Day!

Wonderful pictures. The picture of the flying heron beautifully shows its curved neck (curved to support its heavy head; cranes fly with their necks straight). This is a good time of year to photograph herons and cranes as they congregate at various locations to fatten up in cornfields in preparation for their annual migration south.
Meggen certainly knows how to be at the right place at the right time!, & what to do when she gets there!.
