We spent a good number of hours watching birds (cormorants, pigeon guillemots, adult and juvenile bald eagles, great blue heron, osprey carrying fish, pelicans moving north, oystercatchers).

Was too rocky for me to walk very far south starting at roughly the halfway point, sand moves out in October and November.

The most notable change has been the movement of sand from the northern half of the beach which occurs each winter.
