Today was beautiful, so I stopped at the Nisqually National Refuge off of I-5 north of Lacey for a nice leg stretch. There are 4 miles of trail, through woodlands, meadows and over the water in the Nisqually Delta. Beautiful morning with great views and lots of birds along the way.
Turtle enjoying the sun in one of the woodland ponds
Pretty pink algae
Snow capped Olympic Mountains seen on the way to the boardwalk
Lots of ducks today
Mergansers
Great blue heron
Young bald eagle
American widgeons
Bird prints in the mud
Panorama along the boardwalk over the Nisqually Delta. Could see the Narrows bridge and even Mt Baker far to the north.
Mt Rainier to the northeast
interesting driftwood

old barns in the meadow
this song bird sang to me as I walked along the path
The Nisqually River, I saw a large bald eagle here, but could not get it's picture
