At this point the wind is blowing pretty good and it's just starting to rain. The thing to notice here is the line of fence posts that help keep the grass here. Those posts were probably set 100 years ago. John Harvey Photo > John Harvey Photo - Hiking > Cape Scott > Guise Bay

Western Sandpipers Flying Away
I like how they are all sticking out there legs from the take off. These little birds will migrate from Northern Canada to South America. Species: Calidris mauri (Western Sandpiper)

Beach Side Field
This whole field is Nodding Onion. I wouldn't be surprised if this is actually native agriculture from hundreds of years ago. The smell of onions was quite strong when we walk through this path. Species: Allium cernuum (nodding onion)
