Drying Out

It seems petulant to complain about the weather here in the Pacific Northwest when other places are having far worse weather, but we’ve already set a record for the largest amount of rain ever in the month of November, so when the sun broke through today you better believe I was outside taking pictures.

I wasn’t the only one taking advantage of the sun. All the cormorants I saw, with the exception of one drying his wings were facing directly into the bright sunlight.

Killdeer were out walking along the lake shore,

and the local Belted Kingfisher was feisty as usual

It was a beautiful four hours. I’m ready to face the next five days of predicted rain.
