“Today the FPB voted to adopt the Type Np rule.

We will now have continuous, 75-foot buffers along the perennial, non-fish bearing streams in Western WA. Industry will no longer be able to clearcut straight to the streambank.”

Throwing back to a dreamy day with the Southern Resident Killer Whales off of Lime Kiln State Park in San Juan Island.

Today they’re making their way through Puget Sound, hopefully finding lots of returning chum salmon along the way.

The rivers around Puget Sound are alive with chum salmon right now. Have you been lucky enough to spot any near you? 💕🐟

They haven’t worked their way through the beaver dam yet so it’s great viewing on the trail above.

We just heard our first snow geese of the year, which means it’s officially fall in the Skagit Valley! 💕🪿

If you need some serious cuteness in your life head to your neighborhood pond or lake because the goslings are melting hearts all around right now

Low tide is full of surprises. Sometimes that includes a hermit crab attempted eviction (with some shrimp assists)

A sweet little sequence from yesterday of the newest orca moms in the T36Bs — T036B/Tattertip (on the right) and T036B1/Bhotia (left) with their newest calves, T036B1A (first calf) and T036B4 (second calf).

T036B/Tattertip is also T036B1/Bhotia's mom, making this three generations of cuteness. 💕🐬
