While DH was doing an impersonation of a longshoreman in our kitchen (having difficulties with the installation of our new dishwasher), I took the dogs out for a walk. I heard a cacophony in the stand of madrones over a neighbors house -- more drunken flocks of robins!
I didn't even know the madrones had berries! After looking them up I discovered they are edible by humans, and the bark has medicinal properties as well: http://plants.usda.gov/plantguide/pdf/cs_arme.pdf
the other day i saw a golden eagle flying through the park. there was a wind warning and it was swooping and hunting.

Although we have hawks in this area, I don't often get to see one hunting. It's totally cool to see them doing their thing.

Saw a lot of rabbits along the river while walking yesterday. They're hard to spot, can you?

Hard to spot with a magic marker because they swim or run away.
PS - I only see one wabbit in the center of the frame.
