[Tweeters] Birds of a Fiber and of a Feather Also

[Hank Heiberg]

After reading Robert Rowland’s endorsement of the Birds of a Fiber exhibit at the LaConner Pacific NW Quilt and Fiber Arts Museum, we headed north to have a look.  The exhibit, the others pieces in the museum and the museum itself are absolutely incredible.  We are very happy that we went.  Thank you Robert.  (Note that the museum is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.)

Of course since we were up there we also did some birding.  Two experiences stood out.  

When we were on Rosario Head, two Black Oystercatchers appeared from behind some rocks about ten feet from us.  They were not bothered by us so it was a great photo op.

The other experience was seeing seven very active Short-eared Owls around 1 p.m. on a sunny day at East 90.
