Today is Friday, so I get to work at the Mercer Slough Environmental Education Center in Bellevue. This place is like heaven in the heart of the city. Just gorgeous.
After slaving over a hot computer for six hours, I grabbed my GPS and went out for a little geocaching. Found one about a half mile away, but what I really found was serenity. I've driven by this thing a thousand times and never saw it. It's a fish ladder right in downtown Bellevue. This heron was standing there looking like a salmon sentry. As cars and trucks rumbled by right behind me, this little spot was serene. The name of the geocache hidden there is Save The Salmon. Not sure the heron had that in mind.
Some of the interns from Pacific Science Center helped plant the area around this spot. A great program.
