Nature at Cape Disappointment

















I shot nearly 400 photos the first day. The exquisite beauty of the landscape can't be captured in a photo.

During our weekend getaway to Long Beach, we saw:
deer
owl
raccoon
porcupine (road kill) :(
whale skeleton
pelican
horse
mosquito
and other birds (cormorant?)

Our native salal (Gaultheria shallon) was in full glory covered with blossom and berry. Red elderberry I had mistaken for nightshade...the vibrant crimson was stunning all along the paths. Around every bend was a breathtaking vista...water, trees and foliage. We couldn't get enough and I was sad when the sun finally set at the end of Saturday at Waikiki Beach (no kidding)!
