p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Biking for Birds PNW images!


Hi friends!

I'm currently in Tillamook, OR after crossing the North Cascades and heading south down the Pacific coast.

At present:

546 species of birds observed

11,600 miles cycled

$25,000 raised for bird conservation

I have not been in a car (or ferry or anything gas powered) since December 2013!

If you have no idea what this is all about, please see http://bikingforbirds.blogspot.com

It's really cool, I promise!

All photos with 7D+400/5.6 (except last one when I borrowed 70-200 II IS from a friend)

Hope everyone is well!





Westen gull - I am working on getting photos of gulls in a actual habitat!






Black oysercatcher (tripod for this shot)






Sooty grouse - and yes, this is a wild bird!






Surfbird






Spruce grouse - Also wild, but I will probably remove that band next year when I have access to Photoshop again!

Tillamook! Now you are in cheese country, Dorian. Excellent set of images. The sooty is a very cool shot. Well done. Do you still fit your pants, or are your thighs so big you look like the Incredible Hulk?

Hope you had some of that wonderful cheese in Tillamook. Perhaps some of their delicious ice cream as well.

These are all real beauties, Dorian. What an amazing adventure.

Congratulations on your progress thus far, Dorian. Outstanding results both in terms of images and money raised for a good cause.

Great finds on the grouse(s?). Thanks for sharing those in particular.

Hey Dorian.

Great images from the bike! It happens that I'm the creator of www.loadedtouringbikes.com See the submissions page and make sure you take an impressive shot of your loaded touring bike and send that to me. If your bike gets in The Gallery you'll have a new worldwide audience. Nothing in this for me at all. The site is 100% free and free of ads. Just inspiration for others to travel by bicycle.

Tailwinds! …from Port Townsend, WA.
