Attacking Bald Eagles, Babies & Other Stuff!

The family is having a fantastic time on the Olympic Peninsula. The area is gorgeous, and the weather is fantastic. Yesterday we hiked up Hurricane Ridge where Maren posed in an Alpine meadow. When I returned home, I was treated to some seagulls attacking a Bald Eagle.

Today, my son-in-law Matt and I drove out to Cape Flattery where we beachcombed for over two hours (2 hours of walking on a sandy beach without seeing another human), followed by a hike out onto the Cape Flattery Headland itself.
