This building is probably only fit for reptiles and rodents. I would have liked to have gone inside, but it is fenced off. It’s always a good sign when you see foliage growing out of the sides of a structure.

Watching Each Other
A few weeks ago I had this encounter with a heron on the Duwamish River. They seem to be very wary of people so I was hiding behind some tall grasses up from the river bank.
A Charmed Life?
Snake handlers at the Pike Place Market. Of course, even the tattoo relates to their passion or …..whatever it may be called. Pretty sure I would pass on the chance to hold one of these guys.
A Raspberry in my Future
Pigeon behind the PP Market honing in on a raspberry.
Along the Interurban Trail-#?
This first image was taken nearly at the end of the Interurban Trail. The center of the photo ( the vanishing point?) is the end.
Tim’s Cascade Crunch factory, famous for those thick, teeth-breaking potato chips. Another view of Mt. Rainier and a shot of a cow viewing me.
Sunrise Hike
Just a few of the things we saw as we walked up to the Huckleberry Trail on the Sunrise side of Mt. Rainier. The moss just hung like long strands of hair. The deer just walked out of the brush and onto the trail, coming within 15 feet of me. 
Crossing the Interurban
This little guy was crossing the trail amidst the bicycle traffic, etc. We decided to stand guard until he was safe on the other side of the trail. One bicyclist actually did stop and help us redirect traffic while the salamander made his journey across the trail.
Along the Tacoma Waterfront, something most Fowl
On a recent, hazy day in Tacoma, the fowl were out and about.
Another Wild Bunny Sighting
Along the Green River Trail a wild rabbit forages for a meal.
Elephant Scat
Elephant and scat or ?? do? From the location of the scat in the pen I wonder if the elephants are saying something to the patrons of the zoo? They could do their business in the back, out of sight. Instead, they do it near the fence where the viewing public stands. One of life’s minor mysteries, I guess.
