Scenes from the Beach...

 These are some of my favourite scenes from the surrounding beaches.  First off, the cruise ships go toodling by the Pier, all summer long. This one came by during sunset and an eagle swooped nearby.It was a hot July night, and everyone on the Pier deck stopped what they were doing to watch.
                          Salmon Point Beach. Rocky. Not a tourist mecca.  A little on the wild side.
                                 And here's that same eagle. Closer to shore. Who says birds don't just soar around just for fun....
                               Coast Mountains from Salmon Point.
                                         Eagle at Tyee Spit. Intent on something.
                                                 Maybe the fat pigeons in the nearby field.
                                          Or maybe just contemplating the world.
                                             At Miracle Beach, from the end of the forest trail.
                                             Heron walking in the sand bars at Miracle Beach.
                                             Salmon Point Beach.
                                                   Campbell River Boat launch. Eagles and more eagles.
                                              Lone bench at Tyee Spit, in the mist, on a cool July day.
                                      Same day at Tyee Spit. Long and low grasses near the shore.
                                            Perching at the boat ramp. Fishing.
                                                  Also  near the boat ramp. More fishing.
                                                   Miracle Beach low tide one cloudy July day.
                                             Walking through forest at miracle beach trails.
                                              To finally come out at the end of the trail to low tide,
                                                       sand bars and coast mountains.
                                My all time favourite. Just goes on and on and on.
                                               Trail from Miracle Beach head into the forest.
                                               Taking a stance.
                                               The largest trail down into Miracle Beach.
                                           To see the sun glinting in reflecting on the sand.
                                                    To see the sunset sky. Larger than life.
                                                                      From the beach.
