In my last post I had pictures of the Osprey chicks. This is them again - they're more grown up. The parents were flying overhead, the babies were yelling for food. The parents may be trying to encourage them to start flying and hunting.
This is a cute little float plane, tied up in front of someone's house on Lake Sammamish.
Look at the sky. We're getting smoke from Siberia, Alaska and Eastern Washington. So far there is no ash on the truck, and we don't smell it, so summer is still a success.
Today we had a significant marine push bringing us clouds in the trees and cool temperatures. We are not complaining, on the east side of the Cascades they are cooking.
Love to see those osprey babies. They can squawk a bit. Can you imagine the view they have? I'm surprised at all the smoke. Hopefully those fires will be out soon.
ReplyDeletewe are so far from cool temperatures. having out hottest temps yet. the louisiana kite babies are at the same point here. feed me feed me.
ReplyDeleteOsprey babies! Yeah, the parents are probably trying to motivate them to leave the nest -- like many parents I know. :)
ReplyDeleteI love to watch parent birds encouraging youngsters to leave home, the youngsters protesting all the way.
