It's beautiful! All those rocks are pretty spectacular but I got the whim whams when I saw people too close to the edge. No rock climbing for me- no thank you. The flowers on the rocks were really colorful. I hope you were wearing your hiking boots. Climbing the rocks looks like it could be a challenge. The last picture of the guillemot showed his red mouth. The painting the person was doing in the woods was very good. I also liked the leaves in the shade in front of the "moose" and, of course, the dog in the snugli. I hope they put him down once in a while and let him be a dog. xxxoooRazzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02045062757481697590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309293625176086078.post-89205026422248117112017-08-31T12:06:56.127-04:002017-08-31T12:06:56.127-04:00Great photos even in the fog.

Another appreciable aspect is the way fog forces us to pay attention to what is close at hand, which makes everything a bit different than it would be on a beautiful, blue sky day.

I'd be with David, picking blueberries along the way. :-) It's interesting how similar the Black Guillemot and Pigeon Guillemot are (that's what we have on the west coast). I can see how that deer could be mistaken for a moose —those are definitely some big velvety antlers.
