It's September again, which means we went to see the birds in Portland.
I tell you about these little guys every year, so I won't bore you.
But I will tell you we had fun. And the swifts are a fantastic sight to see. So, if you're ever in Portland in September, check them out!
It's been fun having this little tradition.
There are THOUSANDS of these guys!!
It's totally impossible to take a picture that does the sight justice.
Here's my attempt.
Reagan sat staring at the birds for over an hour. Her eyes were glued to them. And I thought she was going to cry when a hawk swooped into the swarm and caught a bird.
The boys spent the time carboard sleeding, as usual. "We're watching the birds while we sled" they told me. Sure.
I think I have just as much fun watching them as I do the birds.
Goodbye little swifts.
We won't be back next year, or the year after that.
Oh boy, I'm already missing the Portland area, and we still have 9 months left.
