With the Seahawks‘ conference-championship game under way, we have one of our periodic game-day mini-galleries of bird photos sent by readers – starting, above, with the real-life “seahawk,” an Osprey, photographed by Steve Bender, who added the caption. Steve also sent these next three photos – Barrow’s Goldeneyes:

A Mallard:

And Canada Geese:

Also by the sea, a Gull photographed by @alexdavismitt

Also in the fog, a Hummingbird view from Troy Sterk:

Thanks again for the bird photos (which we also publish with some of our daily event lists, between galleries, like this one) – westseattleblog@gmail.com any time!
