February 7, 2022 Incoming Weather

A morning crabbing on the pier under the Yaquina Bay bridge was unsuccessful, except to afford a view of an incoming rain storm!

February 6, 2022 Late Afternoon Sun

Another walk in the woods with our great friends, a picnic spread on the bench in the late afternoon.After our walk we were driving out of the Preserve and finally saw some of the elk we see evidence of all over the area! They disappeared into the woods before we could get a picture!

February 4, 2022 Rhodies!

Finally! More color than just green!

Beautiful Rhododendrons!

We reconnected with some old friends and took a walk high up on the ridges above Cape Perpetua, then along the oceanfront on the 804 trail in Yachats!

The long view over the ridges to the fog covered ocean.

 

February 1, 2022 Coastal Stonehenge

A trip to Ona Beach on an overcast day.

Walking through the park we saw this ‘Stonehenge’ of moss draped stone forms. It was the base of a picnic table and benches!

On the beach we looked up to see two bald eagle sentinels on the bluff overlooking the ocean.

It’s spring mating season! Probably a pair!
