did you watch the salmon run? and how do you get down to this part of the river? i had wanted to wade in the water the last time i went to see this place. aces on the shot!
There is a LOT going on here - you also captured some cormorants, an egret, some other waterfowl, a mysterious crowd of people, and others standing off in the woods. I love this shot so much!
@summerfield yep - it's salmon run season... not that i saw any salmon, but that's the reason for the crowds... this part of the river is right by where i live and pretty easy for me to get to... it's the part you access from Old Mill Road if that means anything to you... on the North East side...
@juliedduncan thanks Julie - yes - thank you for noticing all the birds! the mysterious crows aren't really that mysterious... they happen every year around this time as the salmon are "running" down the river and are known to jump 🥴... it's a bit ironic really... the crowds stand upstream to watch for them jumping, and the fishers are downstream waiting to catch 'em!
@pammyjoy 🙃 not an issue in this case as it's a river, not the ocean... but regardless - such an odd place to park a bike!
