I love watching sea stars move. They can even flip themselves over.
Movin’ on out
Category: Beaches and tidepools
Welcome back lil sea star!
He was only the size of a quarter. But I was so excited to see him. A disease wiped out 90% of the sea stars on the west coast in 2018. It is great to see them returning.
Tidepooling @ Salt Creek
Hubby scoping out great critters for me to photograph.
Rock Toupee
This was taken at Salt Creek park on a minus 3 tide.
They have GREAT tide pooling here. It’s only 40 minutes from Sequim.

Follow me…
This Kildeer did the usual bob up and down, fake a broken leg, move just out of my reach but get me to follow him/her away from the next behavior. I took this from about 30ft away laying on a log to get the perspective.
The blur in foreground and background are from the long lens and 3.2 fstop.
Clap your hands
This guy kept popping out of the water and clapping his paws together. I’ve seen River Otters here before, but this was my first Sea Otter.
Faraway Friday: Sunrise under the pier
I’ve always wanted to capture cascading posts like this under a pier or a train trestle. This one finally worked for me. Got the water the way I wanted, the posts just such you down the way, and the sunrise colors were just icing!
