Here's a friend I made on a trip to Mt Rainier...

That might be a Whitespotted Sawyer (white spot behind the head?). Didn't know there were any around here.

Yes! It did have a white spot...thanks for the identification...I have been wading through pictures of beetles and WOW are there a lot of beetles.

This little guy was a few feet from "Elves Explore the Forest" (GCQTH0). Let's just say MsIDFC screamed, dropped her sunglasses, and ran... :)

We went to the Tri-Cities for the CCMII a couple of weeks ago and the only snake I saw all weekend was a garter snake, I could have stayed home to see that. :lol:

A heron on Rattlesnake Lake...I got pretty close by floating toward it from some distance, but then it decided it'd better fly away from the approaching sea monster.

We found this little guy sleeping near the "til death do us part" cache in the cemetery in Huntley Montana. My daughter thought he needed a name & that he looked like an "Elmer". He also goes by the name Muggle. He scared the beejeezers out of me when he woke up and started watching us search. ;)

We were out at Deception Pass today,

 

There are 400 Black Oystercatchers in the state of Washington and here are 5 of them:

Another shot of three:

Are those Black Oystercatchers really that rare? I recall seeing quite a few of them while looking for the cache on Little Deadman Island. They didn't seem to approve of my presence though...they're noisy little guys.

Seattle Audubon E-Bird web was the source for that info. I've also seen then on Little Deadman.

We saw 3 deer by the side of the road right next to Rock Creek 2 GC24D53. The picture of the other deer didn't turn out. It was acting very shy and hiding in the bushes. Here are the two we did get some Ok pictures of.

This guy was sunning himself along side a trail at Landsford Canal State Park here in Lancaster County SC.

This elk, was quite a ways up the trail when he crossed with two females and a baby...couldn't get the camera up fast enough to capture the others. This was on our hike to GCHX47.

Saw this one in the vicinity of GC19H7A, it just hung out and watched us until we left.
