> This past week we stationed ourselves in Mt. Vernon, WA and took daily trips like spokes from the hub of a wheel. Here are some of the highlights.

>

> Rainy Pass: Canada Jays

> Washington Pass: Canada Jays & Clark's Nutcrackers

> Highway 20 going to the passes: Black Bear on the side of the road (our fifth encounter with a Black Bear in WA)

> Semiahmoo: very close views of a pair of White-winged Scoters; a Black Oystercatcher bathing and a Purple Martin sitting in a tree eating a leaf

> Oso: American Redstart

> Wylie Slough: Black Phoebe

>

> Then there was the earthquake, which we both were awake to feel. That was our second quake while on a birding trip.

>

> Here is a link to the photo album from the trip.
