When Dory and I were in the Skagit on Friday, Jan 20, we came across a large flock of Dunlin which went into their defensive display in approximately the same area that we filmed "Dance of the Dunlins" a number of years ago. Watching birds is never the same twice, and fortunately I was ready again with camera, tripod, and shotgun mic in hand! This type of event just carries a certain magic with it.
