Barn Charm

I pass this barn in Stanwood quite a bit but couldn't get a picture from the road.  So I went right in the driveway and snapped away.  There was an old guy working on his tractor to the front and left of the barn.  I don't think he even saw me.  heehee

I hope everybody has a wonderful Thanksgiving and if that isn't your holiday I hope your have a wonderful day anyway.  Be Thankful!!

I will be away until after the weekend so see ya all later.  MB

How would you like these beauties in your back yard.  (All except for Lowell).

The beautiful Trumpeter Swan come from the far North to winter over in the Skagit and Stilly Valleys.

Foggy Sunrise

 I took the first picture at 8AM this morning---lots of fog around---took the second pic, of the same view, one hour later.  The fog was lifting and we had sunny skies for most of the day.  The fog did return in the evening.

Eagletime

 From one angle----I can't see the face/  Windy huh
 Posing
Coming home from town we decided to check on the Eagle nest down by the Stilly River.  The nest was empty but across the road was an Eagle at the top of a tree.  It was a breezy and rainy day.  I should have taken a picture of the nest.  Next time.

The short life of Fly amanita

Isn't this a pretty Mushroom.  It is called Fly Amanita (Amanita muscaria) and is poisonous.  It is quite large, maybe 8 inches tall and 6-8 inches across.

 It started out as a fat reddish globe
 Then it got taller
 and started to open up
 and the edges started to crack open
 and it split more and faded fast
There was a family of 4 or 5 of various sizes.  They lasted maybe a week or so.
