this past weekend was filled to the brim with photo opportunities, and some
of them panned out... among the more interesting: a purple martin feeding
a chick on the fly, an eclipse wood duck male enjoying a series of
stretches, a woman jumping into union bay (from about 35 feet up) just as
her big toe touches the water (the look on her face is priceless), a
close-up of a black-headed grosbeak chick with its beak caked in suet,
pied-billed grebes (and a cute chick!), and a hairy woodpecker, who has made
my little forest a five-woodpecker-species forest...

oh, and a few of those noisy non-flapping flying things that stopped traffic
on thursday morning... i think they call them "blue angels" :)

i hope you enjoy the photos, which are available in the "photos of the
month" gallery...
