That Steller's Jay sure is eye catching! I've never seen one of them...I've only visited that part of the country once in my life. Love the babies too! Good job walking so many times. I know feel great doing that! I tried to start the year walking every day but had to cut back. Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteI wondered if you felt the earthquake. Glad to know everything and everyone was ok.
ReplyDeleteLove the gosling ball of fluff photo.
Hello John! I always enjoy visiting your blog, thanks for the mention of my blog. Gorgeous sunrise capture! Is it weird to see the raccoon out in the daylight? Love the heron and cute goslings. The Stellar Jay is a handsome bird, I like their colors. Awesome views of Seattle, the Sound and the Bay. My niece living in Snoqualmie said her daughter woke up screaming about her bed shaking from the earthquake. Thank you for linking up your post today. Thanks also for all your visits and past comments! Happy Saturday, enjoy your day and weekend.
ReplyDeleteYou rise even earlier than I do, John. I usually wake up around 5:00am but you're already busy taking pictures. So you missed a day, but picked up again so that you can continue to reap the benefits from your walks. I am laid up myself right now, so most movements are a bit painful, but I'm trying to heal as fast as I can. :-)
ReplyDeleteYou only missed one day of walking in your streak? That is fantastic! One day is nothing-it is when the days string together into weeks of not walking/exercising/dieting (whatever a person is doing) that it is discouraging.
ReplyDeleteLoved all your pictures (as usual). Have a blessed weekend. Diana
Do you think it is connected to the recent two in California?
ReplyDeleteThose goslings are so cute, but my favorite photo from this group is the freighters in early morning light.
ReplyDelete...I live in a boring area, not earthquakes, mudslides, forest fires, just an occasional snowstorm. Keep rocking and rolling!
ReplyDeletestunning sunrise shot
ReplyDeleteI love that sunrise shot and then the Seatle skyline and Mt. Ranier,is spectacular.
ReplyDeleteGreat look at some parts of Seattle.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful photos! I have lots of friends in Washington State who felt that quake too. That must have been an adventure!
ReplyDeleteKudos to you for being so faithful in your daily walks. That is quite a commitment. I love the shots of the Coast Guard Cutter, the freighter, and the Space Needle.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a good weekend.
Washington State is pretty far north of San Diego! some great shots.
ReplyDeleteOohh, I love the photo of Seattle in the beeautiful morning light with Mt. Rainier in the background! There seem to be a lot more baby ducks and geese this year than in previous years. Good for you with all your wwalking, John! Bravo! I've watched the earthquake maps for many years (just because I find it interesting). Since about 2007, Kansas has had its share of earthquakes... the quakiest (haha?) were 6.9M and 6.8M, both within minutes of the other, I think sometime in 2016 or 2017. Most are anywhere from 2.5-4.0 and happen every couple days or so. Some of it "they say" is due to previous fracking in Oklahoma.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos.

Earthquakes must be so scary … I wonder if it was connected to the ones in California!
ReplyDeleteWell done on your walking and thanks again for your lovely photographs, I do enjoy seeing them.
All the best Jan
John your Blue Jay surprised me, I haven't seen one since my childhood days in Indiana. I wonder why we don't have them here, if you have them in Seattle . . . could it be our lack of humidity? As always great photos.
ReplyDeletei am sorry about earthquake dear John ,this is grace of Lord that degree of it was not higher and so destructive
ReplyDeleteyour images are always powerful and intriguing :)
the water is serene ,trails are beautiful and goslings are absolutely cute
sky glimpse are APPEALING
What a beautiful sunrise and I love the skyline shot. A whole lot of shakin down here too, with the July 4 and 5 quakes. I wonder if somehow they are related??
ReplyDeleteThat blue jay is amazing! We don't have them like that here. Ours are blue and white.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comment on my vampire story! :)
a 129 day walking streak is quite impressive! Nice snaps.
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures evey time. What a nice bird is the Steller's Jay!
