Just Beachy!
It was a lovely day at the beach – sunny, warm (for here anyway), and key factor, not windy! It was so nice a Mallard couple were dabbling in the surf (a first for me). The tidepools at Road’s End State Park kept me busy: tidepool closeup, Tidepool Sculpin, snails, Ochre Sea Stars, Chiton, Mussels and Gooseneck Barnacles, Giant Green Anemones, shore crab, and a nudibranch.
