A sunny, warmish St. Pat's day in the Skagit Delta......Swans were scattered and likely the last to migrate north.  Thousands of Snow Geese remain for a few more days or weeks.  One Bittern crossed the road in front of our lunch spot but only allowed a few camera shots once back in the new ground cover.  A few raptors, herons, and LBJ's.  Visibility unlimited.....as the images attest.
