Central Oregon Coast - June 2023
Spent the past two weekends visiting the central Oregon coast and finally got to experience the spring wildflowers in full effect. Was thrilled to experience Erigeron glaucus and Armeria maritima in habitat. What important and resilient plants, growing out of dunes and rock seeps providing home and food for so many different pollinators. Stopped by Depoe bay and got to see the resident gray whales from shore, highly recommend visiting their whale watching center.
