Just back from Olympic pennisular.Stayed a Kalaloch lodge would highly recommend as excellent location for beach walks and access to the area.Visited the Hoh Rainforest and had the privilege of sharing the Hall of Moss with Art Wolfe.
The Barred Owl was beautiful.Sunning itself in the glade.It became attentive to the under growth mantled .Popped it’s head up to give a full view of the rodent that was to be it’s afternoon snack.Moved, pooped and then Art got busy teaching just how to take pictures of this beautiful bird.
Douglas squirrels were foraging for pine cones in the undergrowth then perching on moss covered logs in the deep shade.
There was a brief bald eagle fly by.Turned out we had seen the end of their mating dive.
