this is the actual female who is currently on Bainbridge Island with the male that you saw yesterday -- i think a lot of people are hoping they'll stay and breed.

The male and female were of a pair seen here on Bainbridge Island, WA last Sunday and Monday. They have since left.

Hi!

Do you think they have actually left or do you think they may be sheltering from our unusual snowy weather?

Clapping,
