Songbirds started sounding the alarm. Thought it was because my cat was stalking them. Turns out this barred owl was fixated on my cat. Reminder why my cats are usually indoor only. #barredowl #pnw #whidbeyisland

Low tide at Double Bluff beach. Not one day of living here do I take for granted, but days like this make my heart happy. #whidbeyisland #salishsea #pnw

Watching Sunday morning with Effie. Will we see whales? Will we see any cool migratory birds? Will we just try and snap flies out of the air? Endless possibilities.

Beautiful January walk in the woods. I recognize the privilege I have to live on a magical island where I can disconnect from all that is bad in the world and take time to feed my soul. #whidbeyisland #pnw

Leucistic deer on Whidbey Island. Second time I’ve seen her in the last two weeks. I’ve seen some with a white patch, but never one that’s entirely white. #whidbeyisland #pnw #deer

Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. Not on my bucket list but was invited to go spur of the moment. Worth it, but buy club level tickets to avoid crowds! #balloonfiesta

Leaving my island to go to the island of my childhood summers today. Will it be as magical now that I live on an island instead of it being a wish? #sanjuanislands #pnw

Just sitting here, enjoying the evening as the sun goes down when a group of at least 45 white pelicans flies over. They’re usually on a completely different part of the island, so it was definitely a surprise! #salishsea #whidbeyisland

Doodle littermate playdate at the beach. Effie (on the right) is exhausted by her brother Cosmo’s limitless energy but she will be sad when he goes home.

Yesterday in bird class we learned that California Scrub Jays are rare on Whidbey Island. We’ve had some visiting us all winter so I guess now we are the front line backyard birder scientific researchers for scrub jays in our area.
