Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
This is such a typical scene in Port Townsend. Deer “helping” to prune as a gardener works in her yard.
This was near the street festival and stopped traffic in all directions with visitors snapping photos and shocked that they could get so close.
This was ONE mom and 4 babies…I think something must have happened to another mom.
The Olympic Discovery Trail now runs completely around the North side of the lake. It is pedestrian and now bike friendly (no more gravel!)
You have to bring a light source because the tunnels are pitch black, but they aren’t too long. Below the bridge are kayakers enjoying the day.
There are almost always Kingfishers at the three crabs estuary.
Lake Crescent has very few people on it even in the summer. The only disturbance to the glassy surface was own own trail.
This Canadian goose stayed with it’s straggling gosling while the other 6 were swimming with dad…(or mom–hard to tell!)
I feel SOOOOOOO fortunate to live in the shadow of the Olympic Mountains. Lake Crescent is less than an hour from Sequim. It is truly awe inspiring.
Taking a selfie across the farm is an interesting process…
You have to figure out where you will be –then focus. Run across the field, get set, then trigger the remote without dropping the frame! But the light at 9pm was gorgeous. The lavender is blooming late this year so the buds were barely open.
