Being from California, when I think of beaches, sand and sunscreen come to mind, so staying in a vacation beach house never appealed to me.
Serendipity brought us to Whidbey Island where all I want to do is look out my window at the ocean. And when I'm not doing that, I want to be hiking. It's absolutely beautiful here with all the tall pines and green grass surrounded by water.
And so much wildlife!
Here are some of my Favorite wildlife shots for Snap It
Sitting in the sun room watching the sunrise and an eagle lands on the tree above our window.
Walking along the beaches, we've seen seals. With the seals, we immediately give them our distance. This seal pup was on the beach in our neighborhood and blended in so well with the landscape. I managed to catch this shot as we were walking away to keep the recommended distance.
The seal below was on a rock out in the ocean while we were out at the off leash dog beach at Double Bluff.
And while we were sitting watching this second seal, an eagle landed just beyond to eat it freshly caught prey. We could hear the sounds as it tore into what sounded like crab. It finally flew off when it noticed people approaching.
Now I want a DSL and a better zoom lens:)
