But wait, there's more
The gardens are a great place for people watching.
Here is an Incessant Talker plugged into her cell phone.
An Ardent Photographer stretching for just the right angle. (sorry Rose. I couldn't resist.)
A pair of Venerable Shutterbugs discussing f-stops and light metering.
The Momma Indian retains her traditional plumage, though the son and husband have assumed western coloration.
Here are a pair of female Earnest Docents.
Oh look, - a pair of Appreciators! Notice how the male is larger, but more drab than the female?
A rare sighting of Volunteer Raker.
And here's a cheerful Eccentric Sweater Wearer. Notice that the sweater pattern is is not symmetrical? This friendly fellow was happy to pose for us and chattered complacently about his fine plumage.

Thank you so much for this short introduction to native Oregonian species and various cross Pacific migratory birds as well.

*twitches at the sweater*
I would have to go after that with a dark laundry marker or something.
Verification word: dracones
(I did not spot any dragons in this post, although I did have to look closely at the creature in the docent photo.)

Hey, I do not look too bad in that photo! Just far enough away! LOL
That gentleman was very proud of his sweater!
