Quick visit to Martha Lake Airport Park
- After parking, I notice some metallic sculptures along the west side of the park. These seem to be various forms of paper airplanes. An older man was walking by and I felt a bit awkward grabbing a picture, so I wanted for him to pass. I then looked around to find the glacial erratic that is supposed to be in the park. I see it in the distance.
- Hat Island Natural Resources Conservation Area (dnr.wa.gov)
Hat Island is one of the eastern most islands in the San Juan group, located in Padilla Bay between Anacortes and Bayview. Douglas fir, Pacific madrone and Pacific yew are the dominant tree species. Passers-by view grass headlands of sloping terraces composed of blue wildrye, red fescue, camas and clover. This 91 acre conservation area provides habitat for bald eagles, seabirds and shorebirds.
