My discovery on Friday of National Forest Campground closers
ended on a surprisingly good note. I
ended up at a Douglas County Campground at Winchester Bay name Windy Cove. The name strikes me a bit on a misnomer as it
is tucked up under a bluff protected from the wind. The rate was only thirteen dollars for a site
with electricity and cable TV, and the sunshine was abundant with daily temps
in the seventies. There are two separate campgrounds at Windy Cove, an “A” and
a “B”. I stayed in “A”, and it was the
quietest with “B” being filled with ATV users.
Buster and I got in a couple of good walks, around
Winchester Bay Marina and Winchester Bay RV Resort. The following photos are a sample of some of
the birds I saw.
Great Blue Heron (adult)
Killdeer
Double-crested Cormorant
Surf Scoter (female)
Surf Scoter (male)
Looks like a great place to stay, we will add it to our list!
