Columbia River Gorge (Oregon Side)~

We are staying in The Gorge Hotel built in 1921 where my grandparents once stayed,

with the wildflowers blooming,

driving up to find the views,

my grandfather painted in his Columbia Gorge paintings.

This observant robin didn’t let me distract him,

from his worm,

and this friendly elk licked our car windows!

Cheers to you from the gorgeous Gorge~

Bird Watchers~

You just need,

to be alone,

silent,

and still.

If you do this,

you will find,

that birds are avid people watchers!

Cheers to you from the always observant birdies~

Note: Featured birds are a Stellar Jay and American Robin.
