Photo of the Week: Mount Hood Sunrise

Published by Dawn On September 10, 2019
Photo: Jeff Hollett

This stunning scene is for those that venture out at daybreak along the Columbia River. The sun rises dramatically behind Mt. Hood as you look east from the Portland/Vancouver area. There are many piers on which local wild birds may join you for the show. Atop many perches up and down the river, platforms have been built to help accommodate the wild Ospreys and their nests. This heron has prime viewing for a promising breakfast.
