We stopped by the Cline Spit County Park again and found several song sparrows to entertain us. This fellow above is stretching his neck up to hava look about. This is apparently part of the mating behaviour. The end of December is the time to begin this mating dance 'cause spring is a'coming.
Out by the sea we find an Heron resting on a limb. Between the red berries and the particolored lichens on the dead tree, the bird almost feels like an afterthought.
With a little hint of sunshine, we ventured out to Dungeness. This is a coastal settlement between Sequim and the Juan de Fuca Strait. Near the Dungeness Wildlife Reserve there extends a long sandbar out to a larger spit of sand on which a lighthouse is built. The Cline Spit County Park sits on the coast looking out at this long sandbar and lighthouse. We came here looking for birds and maybe an image of the lighthouse.
