Life on the coast in Talk Story

Aloha…

As you long time readers are aware… my home backs up to the Harris Beach State park… about 30 feet away from my back deck…

On any given day… there is a myriad of wildlife hanging out in the forest… and in my back yard…

Last year a herd of elk came through on two separate days… and deer are almost daily visitors…

A bear visits a couple of times a year… and neighbors have seen both mountain lions and a wildcat…

There is a family of foxes… numerous raccoons… possums… rabbits (the cute little kind)… numerous birds including quail and turkeys… also blue jays… doves… wrens and sparrows…

There is even a (small) hawk that seems to enjoy one of the branches out back…

Also chipmunks and squirrels galore… also enjoyed by the (small) hawk…

I have several bird baths in the yard… and it always brings a smile to my face to see the different birds and animals using them…

Thanks for drifting by…

Aloha oe…
