This Blue Heron caught a small fish. It was so happy it was doing the mudflat two step!

MAGGIE SINGING AWAY
Maggie began to sing while on the mudflats. I suspect she saw a eagle coming too close to her territory.

MAGGIE BEING PESTERED
A gull took exception to Maggie being on the mudflats.Eagles are constantly being harassed by Crows and Gulls (sometimes Ravens as well).
THE MUDFLAT JIG
Maggie danced up a storm! She did the mudflat two step!
MAGGIE ON THE MUDFLATS
MAGGIE GIRL
Its been 22 days since I last went out on one of my evening shoots. The weather has been poor over January,but thats to be expected this time of year. January has more raincoats than sunglasses.
So it was great to get out and visit with my fine feathered friends! I visited “The Daredevil”,Maggie and Romeo. I saw Juliette looking on from a distance but she’s always been a tad distant. They each seemed to be their chirppy happy selves!

MUDFLAT SALLY & SAM
I’ve seen this couple out on the mudflats before.Last time the female was enjoying a Crab dinner & the male waiting for his turn.
Today they both were just standing around doing nothing? I have no idea why? The female is the one on the left.

MAGGIE & MOE SHOPPING AT THE SUPERMARKET
Maggie & Moe always check out the mud flats during low tide for tasty treats.The high tide always brings fresh food in & leaves it during low tide.Moe seemed to be content with just standing around while Maggie was more active!
MAGGIE’S CLOSE UP
A SHY “MOE”
Each Eagle has a unique personality just like a person.Moe for whatever reason has never taken a shining to me.I think he knows I’m taking pictures of him sometimes & takes off! A shy guy I guess.

THE HAPPY COUPLE SINGING JOYFULLY!

EASTER DAFFODILS
I always visit this small islet each year when the Daffodil’s are blooming. Not sure who planted them,but there are three small patches of them. This spot is just north of the “Big Tree Trail”on Meares.
Looks like I took a shot of myself too!
Maggie
Maggie was active tonight with Moe looking on in amusement!
I managed to get one good run out of her! The background down the inlet was absolutely perfect! I dream of these situations!
She was a sweetheart tonight and I yelled to her ,”thank you”!

Another Blue Heron On The Mudflats
They wade in the shallows ever so slowly looking for little fish moving about in the ell grass. When they spot one, they move their head very slowly closer until they are within hitting distance and STRIKE!
They then gulp the wiggling meal down the hatch and carry on looking.
