Oregon Trip Pictures #6

Looks like I am really milking this trip for lots of blog posts, and we still are not in Oregon yet.  After a night in Boise, we headed out to the Morley Nelson Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area.

 We actually saw quite a few raptors on the drive there.

 We didn't have much of a plan once we got there.  But we were fortunate enough to run into someone that was waiting on a friend.  He told us about the hiking trails and how to find them.   We crossed over the river at this power plant.

 There was a museum inside which if you are interested in machinery  would have been entrolling, but that was not our focus.

 The view from the bridge however, was captivating.

 We did see lots of birds, but my camera is not very well suited for that type of photography, so I stuck to the view and flowers. 

 There was an interesting informational sign describing a flood 14,500 years ago that carved out the area and left boulders lying around.

 E said I didn't need to try to get something in the foreground in every shot, but I think it's more artistic.

 A very enjoyable hike with lots of different flowers.

And a togetherie at Dedication Point.
