So after our little murre rescue yesterday, I took the kids to Cannon Beach to look for Tufted Puffins nesting on Haystack Rock. The birds were pretty easy to see, but not so easy to show others with a scope as they were mostly flying around and disappearing into their nesting burrows with fish to feed their babies. But some of our group got to see one perched on a ledge for a few moments, while others saw them flying around the rock.
And then there were the puffin statues and info right in town.
We assuaged our so-so birding results by getting candy at the Buzz candy store in Seaside. Me, I had the chocolate covered bacon!
I'm constantly bewildered by someone who can love animals as much as you do, birds in this case, and at the same time eat other tortured animals.
ReplyDeleteBacon=pig, then again, I'm guessing you eat chickens and turkeys, possibly duck, pheasant?
I just don't get it. I never will.
