A White-crowned Sparrow(?) trilled away from a treetop nearby.
 

   
     
   
     
On a log a young Red Winged Blackbird flapped his wings.

 
     
   
     
Papa encouraged him quite loudly from not far away.
 
 
     
   
     
Tim took this wonderful photo of the cheering gallery.
 
 
     
   
     
'Ahhhh, this is the life.' says my favorite beachcomber.


     
   
     
High above us at the Ballard Locks, a Double Crested Cormorant dries its wings.
 

     
   
     
'Coming in for a landing!!!' A Great Blue Heron screeched to a stop just below the breakwater.
 

     
   
     
A pair of Barrow's Goldeneyes paddled madly towards the locks.
 

     
   
     
A few cormorants frolicked in the bubbly foam generated by the cascading water.

I also took a picture of a rat which you can see by mousing over the saying below if you like.
