That's a long walk when there's nothing much to see!  Is the van still running the main road?  I like the pics, with his puffy chest.

today was one of those days where i was happy just to walk. nice and pretty when you go near the bird tagging station.

apparently there's a great horned owl and, possibly, a saw-whet owl at the Spit
