Metolius River

We also visited the head of the Metolius River which emerges from the side of a hill near Sisters, OR. Dad and Terrie are huge bird watchers and this turned out to be a great bird watching day both here and at the Wizard Falls fish hatchery. We saw a Stellars Jay at the river origin and a rare Dipper at the fish hatchery. As you can see, the kids really got into watching birds too. There aren't any pictures of the fish (trust me there were lots of them in large tanks and a pond) but the rapids are of the Wizard Falls and they really are this strange blueish color - very cool.
