Last week the bushes around my house were filled with these cheeky little birds. They have since moved on in their journey south.

Looking straight up at a mobile that hangs in the center concourse of the Seattle Airport. Of course, those are Salmon on the ends on the lines.

In one of the most dramatic river crossings of recent years a mad rush of an estimated 30,000 wildebeest hurl themselves into the Mara River...in a desperate race (in the the wrong direction!) towards lush grazing to the south of the river.

New members of the Migration Museum Foundation warmly welcomed with morning tea. It is a chance for new members and their families to inspect their paver/s in Settlement Square.

The Wildebeest Migration is a dramatic story. It takes place within Kenya and Tanzania and is the greatest wildlife show on earth. Between the open plains of the Serengeti and the Masai Mara, thousands of wildebeest and zebras migrate to greener pastures as the seasons change and the circle of life and death continues. Predators follow the Wildebeest Migration closely, waiting for an opportunity to strike weak prey as they make their way into different territories.

 

The precise timing of the Wildebeest Migration changes annually and it is a very unpredictable and spontaneous natural event. The calving season takes place in the Serengeti between the months of January and mid-March before the Wildebeest Migration begins heading towards the western Serengeti in June.

When Cameras are watch-fobs, breath-taking and picture-taking are one. Here, gilded goose bottoms going down for the evening over the hedge-maple. So I imagine sharing some portion of the moment to offset any pang of excessive privilege. Surely this and similar forces create and sustain clichés.

What does it mean to be an immigrant? And who is really impacted when people leave their homes in search of a dream? Is there more to the story than what is debated in the press? Using popular education tools, the Latin American and Caribbean Community Center leads participants in mapping their personal migration stories and identifying the forces that encourage us to get up and move.

During their long migration, rufous hummingbirds make a clockwise circuit of western North America each year. They move up the Pacific Coast in late winter and spring, reaching Washington and British Columbia by May. As early as July they may start south again, traveling down the chain of the Rocky Mountains.

 

Following this pattern, we do not see them in the spring, but on their return trip in July and August. Patches of showy milkweed appear to be one their favorites on Seedskadee NWR. This juvenile male rufous hummingbird was accompanied by other rufous hummingbirds, hummingbird moths, monarch butterflies, bumblebees, and other pollinators in this patch of showy milkweed.

 

Hummingbirds have extremely long tongues that allow them to reach nectar in long tubular flowers. You can see the extended tongue in this photo.
