Birds dominate the air space above dairy farms in western Washington. So many birds were buzzing the Stanwood property below I'm surprised they avoided mid-air collisions. See the dots on the far right roof? A bird pit stop. The pigeons above are squatters at this farm off Pioneer Highway. The owner, whose family homesteaded the property in the late 1800s, says a bald eagle will occasionally join the roof party. As I set up my camera a row of dairy cows behind me began mooing. Probably asking, "What's that city boy doing here?" I'm bird watching, that's what.
