A dip in the creek?

  

We spent some time watching an American Dipper (Cinclus mexicanusin a creek along the Oregon Coast today (5 April 2026).  I had trouble deciding which photos to share, so here are a few different views.  Enjoy!

Peeking out

  

A beautiful view of the tentacles of an Orange Sea Cucumber (Cucumaria miniata).  You can also see a few of the cucumber's tubefeet closer to the rock.  Photo from Del Norte County in California on 4 April 2026.

With thanks to Eric for a great photo!
