Report Details
A beautiful July day, the coast being enjoyed by a large number of people, Devil's Churn parking lot filled. We visited at low tide, 0.7 enabling us to walk far out on beach and rewarded by seeing at least 50 seastars. Next day we visited Neptune beach again at low tide and delighted to see 100s of seastars at that location, healthy plump adults as well as juveniles, an exciting sight following the die off of recent years.

I normally don't report on Mile 190 but since I've been a volunteer naturalist/interpretive ranger at Cape Perpetua since 2008, I can report on those things that have been changing over the years.

The rock walls appear to have been scoured of small blue mussels and the only sea star noted was in a depression at the top of a rock at the western edge of the beach, which also appeared to be part of a healthy community with anemone.
