While I spent most of my time this past weekend slogging around the mudflats of Comox Bay looking for Bent-nosed Clams and Japanese Littlenecks I couldn’t help looking occasionally skyward. The light was just brilliant and the combination of dark mud and dynamic clouds was irresistible. Many of these photographs feature a set of pilings. The bird boxes on these pilings are for Purple Martins, a species of bird that tends to favour nest boxes over tidal mudflats.
Enjoy these SkyWatch Friday photographs!
Dark moody skies over the mudflats of Comox Bay. This amazing area can be access from the Filberg Heritage Lodge and Grounds in Comox on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Rubber boots are recommended if you plan to explore the mudflats.

Beautiful set of pictures. I can’t decide which one I like the best. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Tarun and Gwendolyn – glad you enjoyed these images!
I just love your photographs. The first two are somewhat Biblical (to me). All are powerful.
