What a joy it is to live just a few minutes away from island gems such as this: Rosario Beach. On this hike I encountered a couple visiting from Seattle and a young man scoping the area for fishing spots. A few folks stopped to take a view seat on the trail to Bowman Bay.
Incoming! Cormorants took over Gull Rock Monday morning. Lots of noise, action as the size of the crowd grew. Bowman Bay.
I spotted the eagle first, and then a few minutes later noticed a kayaker approaching the rocks where it was perched. Kayaking and wildlife photography … a great combination! Gull Rock near Rosario.
Waves crash against massive rocks between Rosario and Bowman bays.
