An immature
Bald Eagle did a fly-by to see what we were up to.

Here I am plodding
down the trail to Cape Flattery, the most north-western point of
the continental United States. It's a well-maintained trail, with
boardwalks over the mucky spots.
|
|
|
|
There are also log stepping
stones in the wet areas, which makes it much easier to walk.
|
|
|
Tim kindly pushes
a couple of trees out of the way for me.

I could hardly wait to get
to the first lookout and there it is! I am sure I had an ear-to-ear
grin by this point.

Here's the second
look out, high up above the cliffs.
|
|
|
The rocks were
covered with Black Oystercatchers and the waves crashed loudly.
|
|
|
Here's a close-up
of one of the many caves in the cliffs.
|
|
|
A colony of
cormorants sits on one of the rocks jutting out into the ocean.
|
|
|
Further back
on another cliff were some Western Gulls and their young.
