Tokeland, WA

Friday, August 10, 2007
We left Warrenton about 9:00 this morning and drove to the Bayshore RV park at Tokeland, WA. We are in a good sized corner space. We set up and took the girls to the beach, the girls noses couldn’t stop twitching for all the new smells. Later in the day Roadie and I walked across the street to the golf course and wandered around, sorry I didn’t bring my clubs.

This morning we went down to the Tokeland Marina, we saw hundreds of Marbled Godwits on the shore, with Black Turnstones and Wiillets were mixed in. We saw a harbor seal swimming just outside of the dock. We saw lots of people heading out to sea for a day of fishing.
Next we traveled up Hwy 105 stopping several times along the beach looking for birds. Today’s highlight was seeing a Bald Eagle standing in the surf. We drove as far north as Westport, walked the jetty and saw lots of gulls, pelicans and cormorants on the jetty. Westport has grown since the last time we were there.

We stayed at the RV park today, just walked the beach and golf course. It rained last night and everything is damp today.

We went looking for birds again this morning, didn’t see very many. We drove up to Westport and got the propane tank filled. We didn’t see very many birds on the way home either, the birds must have been out looking for lunch. It is beautiful today, the sun is out and the temps are in the 70’s.

We went out looking for birds again this morning, there were more around today than yesterday. We stopped at some of the beaches and just watched the hundreds of birds on the shores. Today was beautiful, the sun was out all day with a light breeze and the temps in the mid 70’s.
Thanks to Burt and Priscilla for introducing us to this place, it is beautiful, peaceful and relaxing.
