Heron Heart Reflections



This is the pond at my house and my mosaic Heron. AND..........

My daughter Richelle and I went to Langley on Whidbey Island to visit my mother-her grandmother. We had a very nice time and went into the small town and visited some shops. While we were there someone said the whales were out in the water. Langley in on Saratoga Passage. So we went out to look and sure enough out by a boat were some whales. We couldn't see them too well be cause we were not close enough but we could see the plume of water when they sprayed. None breeched. So it was exciting. They come in closer to feed when the tide is out, and the tide was coming back in. It was low tide around 6:30 that morning. But just being there and seeing all the people excited was fun. This happens every year but I've never been there when the whales were. They are Grays I think. I don't think Orcas yet.
Sky Watch Friday today and Whales Yesterday. Fun!!
