SNOQUALMIE, WA (May, 2026) - It’s been at least 10 years since I’ve visited Snoqualmie Falls in Washington. I was able to get back this month, but was disappointed to find out that they have limited the access on the ground level of the falls. Basically, they built a walkway that ends before the rocks. You used to be able to walk out on the rocks last time I was there. However, it was still magnificent and there was pretty heavy water flow throwing a lot of mist.
Was happy to get all of the girls together this Mother’s Day. I was totally unprepared, so took these snaps with the Leica Q. Haven’t used the Q in a while, but I love that camera!
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. (May, 2026) - Was stoked to get out with some friends this Spring to photograph some of the migrating birds. These include, but are not limited to, the Blue Grosbeak, Black-headed Grosbeak, Townsend’s Warbler, Wilson’s Warbler, Western Tanager and the Lazuli Bunting.
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. (April, 2026) - The Prothonotary Warbler is native to the Southeastern U.S. For whatever reason, one came to Huntington Beach Central Park. He was there about four days total and I was able to see him twice. It turned out to be kind of a big deal, because “birders” from all over were visiting the park looking for him. Here are a few photos from my encounters.
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. (April, 2026) - There have been many different species of migrating birds frequenting the local spots. Here’s a few photos from April.
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. (April, 2026) - This Spring was the season for Owlets. There were multiple locations in the HB area. Here’s a few photos.
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. (April, 2026) - Over the past six years, I’ve had encounters with this Bald Eagle in and around Orange County. This spring, she frequented Huntington Central Park along Lake Huntington. Previously, I would see her perched, and then she would fly off. On this day, she hung out for 3.5 hours and took six flights to try and catch fish. While she did get one small one, for the most part the lake hasn’t been stocked for a while. Here are a few photos from the day.
