Salt Creek Recreation Area – Sequim Daily Photo

Movin’ on out

I love watching sea stars move. They can even flip themselves over.

A close up of his “suckers” (I’m sure there is a more scientifica name).

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

A New Beginning

Thanks to my friend Bob Selby for taking this stunning photo of me at Salt Creek Recreation area as the sun rose.

It is my great honor to fill in for Kay who has been sharing our beautiful area via her photos for over 9 years. We wish her some rest,relaxation, and recovery…

The Olympic Peninsula is an amazing place, filled with wonderful people. I have been blessed to call Sequim my home now for 6 yrs. I hope to share with you a little slice of Sequim and beyond thru my lens.

Please comment on the photos and let me know what you like. I have pretty broad tastes in photography, and I am excited to share with you.

Tidepools

The tide was coming in as we explored the Salt Creek Recreation Area recently (see yesterday’s post). But my husband the fisherman couldn’t resist showing the size of some of the mussels in one of the tide pools. This one went back into the water; I suspect that gathering dinner from the pools here is a no-no. But to look at the marine life along the coast it’s hard to imagine the native peoples ever went hungry.
