We retraced our steps, back through the culvert.
A Black-tailed deer grazed at the side of the highway, ignoring the traffic.
| It's Sunday, and time to head back to Seattle. We took the scenic route down the coast, stopping now and then for a look. Tim was particularly interested in the tree growing on one of the sea stacks. |
| Whoa - great spotting, Tim. We're always thrilled to see a Bald Eagle. |
Here's Beach Four. No tide pools for me today either.
As we drove over a bridge near Lake Quinault we spotted a huge herd of Roosevelt
Elk.
| Tim counted at least 30 of them, with more in the bushes. |
| They were lounging around on a dry riverbed. |
We watched them (and they watched us) for 5 or 10 minutes.
Then off they all went into the bushes. I was beyond thrilled to see them.
Tiger Swallowtail butterflies were everywhere but not many stayed still.
| Also beside the road was Bunch Creek Falls, about 60 feet high. |
Lastly we stopped at Westport to look at the Brown Pelicans.
| We enjoyed a fish-and-chip lunch at Bennett's Fish Shack at Westport Marina. Then off we went to Bremerton and the ferry home. What a nice ending to a great holiday. |
