North Along the Coast - Day 1 Oct 29

Cape Lookout in the background

After enduring many days of rain, we saw sunshine on the forecast for Saturday and Sunday, so we made plans to head to the coast.  We have traveled south on the Oregon  Coast on many trips recently over the past two months with our new Winnebago Pocket van. For variety, we headed North on this trip, with a first stop planned at Clay Myers State Natural Area at Whalen Island. This is a favorite birding destination for us, and again we were not disappointed. You can see our birding list here.

Our spot for the night

Our parking destination for the night was Blue Heron French Cheese Company in Tillamook.  We have stayed here several time in the past, and we always enjoy it.  It's sort of an miniature Oregon version of California's Knott's Berry Farm.

We are looking forward to a quiet night here. And tomorrow? You guessed it, more birding!
