West Seattle wildlife: On the ground and in the trees

| West Seattle news | West Seattle parks | Wildlife

Photos this afternoon from three of the photographers who have shared more than a few images va WSB over the months and years (thank you!) – first, Machel Spence and daughter India found “a stropharia and a sleeping slug” in the Thursday morning chill at Lincoln Park. That’s also where Bill Bacon got a squirrel to pose (after bribing it with a bit of sandwich) last week:

And Melanie Dixon spotted this juvenile bald eagle this morning near Me-Kwa-Mooks, on the lookout for salmon (after competing with a family of sea lions, she said):

Thanks to them and to everyone who has shared photos, from cameraphone breaking-news shots, to volunteers out doing great things in the community, to school celebrations, wildlife, sunsets/sunrises, and so much more … here’s how to connect with WSB any time.

I never thought I would use “cute” and “slug” in the same sentence.

Bill, feeding people food to wild animals is bad for both animals and people. Here is some information about it: http://www.paws.org/feeding-wildlife.html

Beautiful photos, though.

Sorry, comment time is over.
