Bloedel Reserve Extended Evening Hours

There is never a bad time to visit the Bloedel Reserve on Bainbridge Island.

I get the opportunity often since I am a member but also because I take travel writers and just the other day a videographer there as part of my job at the Visitor's Bureau.

This picture is of Junko Frego, the PA and wife of Videographer Sean Frego. Junko and I were taking a break on the grass while Sean was setting up for another shot.

Great news, the Bloedel Reserve is now open Thursday evenings although when I just checked they have not yet updated the website to show the new hours.

I have long asked about earlier and later hours. For a photographer the best time is either early or late and up until now many have been unable to take advantage of the beautiful reserve during these times. Also there is more likelihood of seeing wildlife and at some times of the year the weather is more pleasant before 10AM or later in the evening not to mention the conflict with work for some.

So, to encourage the Bloedel Reserve to continue and expand their new hours I encourage everyone to make a point of visited during the extended Thursday hours.
