CHANGE OF SCENERY .....


The Trumpeter Swans from Alaska come here for the winter. There is lots of water and forage. These are in a nearby potato field recently harvested and plowed and apparently mighty attractive to the big birds. There were more than 400 in this group ... they are not all in the picture. Quite a sight and boy can they trumpet! In the background are foothills of the North Cascade mountains - and snow!


Missed a Blog post yesterday - busy! Duhhhhh. I think most of the rest of the known bunny bloggers are too.

What a beautiful sight! We used to have open fields near our house, but they are all filled up with houses now! Progress =:-(
