Elsie Mae, a seal so grand,On the beach, she makes her stand.Volunteers in coats arrayed,Guard her rest, a blustery day.A gentle giant in their care,Elsie Mae, beyond compare.Winds may howl, and skies may grey,But by her side, they will stay.                              -Oakley Blustery […]

In the glow of the afternoon light,A robin darts, wings spread in hurried flight.Towards the barred owl, with fierce and might,Defends its young, the owl’s persistent fight.                                  -Oakley Survival Flight © Chris LeBoutillier Dog Woods of Guemes, Guemes Island

It calls me into the wild, I search with glee,To where earth, spills its melody.A dance with splash, sound fills the air,A waterfall’s grace, beyond compare.                                       -Oakley Mt Baker Song © Chris LeBoutillier Mt Baker, WA Location

Solar winds, tranquil dome,Auroras dance, in the twilight’s home.Emerald curtains, artfully cast,Silent symphony, fast and vast.                                       -Oakley Pacific Northwest Celestial Dance © Chris LeBoutillier Carnation, WA 05.10.2024

Beak so sharp, the eagle preens, Each feather cleaned, to a soft sheen,A dance with care, nature’s routine, In regal grace, his beauty’s seen.                                       -Oakley American Bald Eagle © Chris LeBoutillier Guemes Island, WA
