This park is located about 20 miles south of Tillamook very close to the pacific ocean... lovely spot really and we have always enjoyed our visits to this park. For 1 thing they have wild bunnies and deer which adds a special flavor! Then they are right across the street from a very cool beach with tide pools... their very own 'haystack rock' which they like to boast about in town.. the park is on a hill and densly wooded which adds a bit of privacy... WHEN the weather is nice, it's a great place to have campfires... this year however our timing was off and we hit a very rainy, windy time! goodness the wind and rain pelted down on us and we stayed pretty much holed up inside..ha! Left today (the 29th) and had every thing hit us from rain, wind, hail, snow and finally sunshine! Lovely.. now at Long Beach, WA until Friday!!!
It was a bit of a surprise to see this guy swoop down on this dove at our "quail block" the other day. He sat there looking around long enough for us to get a few pictures then flew off to eat in private. Thank goodness he took the dove with him instead of feasting right there. They have to eat too; and all that but it is disturbing to come out and see a pile of feathers. I can speak from past experience they do not leave anything behind besides feathers.. no skin or bones or waste... Pretty isn't it...
