Sea Life




This has been a great time of year for finding lots of wildlife along the Oregon coast. From seals, to sea lions, to gray whales, to otters, and of course all kinds of birds. Some of the animals we sought out, while others, we just happened upon. The seals were discovered when we pulled off the road high above the Pacific to enjoy a beautiful vista. We heard the seals "honking" as we stepped out of the car. They were so plentiful you could not see the rocks they were lounging on, and the racket they were making was almost deafening, yet laughable. The sea lions we sought out. We went to the worlds largest sea cave, which is north of Florence. You can see hundreds of sea lions outside on the rocks or you can take the elevator 200 feet down and peek inside the huge cave and see hundreds more. Who needs TV when you have this kind of entertainment.
