I drove off island the other day for some errands that took me north to Bellingham. As I neared the farm fields where I had seen them last December I slowed my car in the hopes they would be there again.

Trumpeter swans and snow geese as far as the eye could see. The trumpeter swans wintering here come from populations that nest in Alaska. The snow geese have traveled from Wrangel Island, Siberia; 2,417 miles - as the goose flies. Imagine that!
