We visited the beach at the Yaquina Head Lighthouse which is at the North end of Newport. Chris and Bev had never been there before, so this was a new experience for them.

There were many purple sea urchins in the pools.
Goose neck barnacles
Taking a breather
Can't get any more relaxed than this (although that is one rough bed!)
Oyster catchers...these birds can really make a racket!

Cormorant
Chris and I climbed in closer to the wildlife (which we found out later we were not supposed to do).
The beach is not sandy...it is full of smooth roly poly rocks. They were heated up, so laying on them was like a hot rock sauna!
These looked like a type of clover. The colors were vibrant!
Making the long hike back up all those stairs!
