I had another grreeaat day. The weather was near perfect again. Drove down to Mt. Rainier and took another nice long hike, during which we saw what I believe was a Willow Ptarmigan (a cold-climate quail like bird), which I found exciting because I always love seeing new birds I've never seen before. We also saw a doe and her fawn, and a few more adult deer from a distance. I got a few nice pictures of the bird and a great one of the fawn, and some decent ones of the other deer. And on the drive down, also got some good shots of downtown Seattle, including more of the Space Needle. I love my new camera!

That's good. You'll have to show us a picture of the birdy. I was watching House Sparrows doing little ariel acrobatics over the garden catching the flying ants that have been around the past few days. All the local cats were draped over stuff in the heat so the birds could sit unmolested on all the best vantage points for this annual feast.
