Something ate a opossum on our property this week. Bobcat?
While moving logs I saw several Oregon Ensatinas. They can live 10-15 years in the wild, and if grabbed by the tail, will separate it from their body to escape, like a lizard.
Another day at an isolated beach on Thursday. This time, Strawberry Hill.
Low tide allows for a lot of exploration.
You can barely see Gail and Daisy. We lazily sifted through little gravel patches to add a few agates to our collection.
The day was perfect, but the clouds on the horizon spelled rain for the days since. This coming week looks to be good weather for yard work and hikes in the area.

I envy your deserted beaches!
That possum paw looks so delicate and grim. Good to see the ol' chapstick again. (But, why no chapstick next to the ensatina? It could be the size of an alligator for all I can tell.) Kidding. The ensatina is so pretty and I can't believe they live 10-15 years in the wild--that seems like a long lifespan.
Cool sightings and scenes as always! Keep us updated on the garden progres.
