Report Details
There were twelve dead common murres and one decayed brown pelican in the wrack line. Five of the murres were just forty yards north into Mile 222, but readily visible and clustered a handful of yards apart so they're included here. I've never seen so many on my walks of this mile the past five years.

- Visible new rock slide erosion along half of the mile - Young off-leash dog who harassed my dog and would not relent until the nonplussed owner slowly walked over the 70 yards minutes later; the dog was let off leash again to run all around, out of voice command, chasing shorebirds.

Quiet day with light human activity.

Gorgeous, quiet winter afternoon alongside dozens of sea pickles, a moderate rockslide at south end, disconcerting complete absence of birds, and sadly typical two armfuls of marine debris.

I walk this beach most days and it's been unremarkable besides the typical gulls, cyclical ocean deposits, and sporadic walkers.
