Hello Tweeters,

Ever since we moved to Edmonds last year, we have intended
to get on the ferry and go over to the peninsula. We finally did this today
and made it as far as Point No Point, Norwegian Point, and Foulweather
Bluff, all right near Hansville. We probably couldn't have had a more
beautiful day. I put the best pictures of the day in a folder on Flickr.

Some of these are birds you see in your backyard, such as
the Violet-green Swallow. Others are less common like the breeding plumaged
Pacific Loon. Most of the pictures are Bill's. He took a series of three
gulls excited about the mouthful of small fish that one of these gulls had.
I'm thinking these gulls are all Glaucous-winged/Western hybrids. If any of
you think differently, I would be happy to hear from you.

I threw in a few scenic for context.

Happy birding,

Charlotte Byers, Edmonds
