Sea lion on the beach

Ordinarily, a sea lion on the beach is not really a big deal around here.  However, this Sea Lion is a salmon fishing boat that ran aground yesterday, due west of the Bayshore Beach Club.  The skipper fell asleep and woke up when it was too late to do anything.  They hoped the boat might lift off the sand at high tide, but that didn't happen.  Early reports are that the hull was cracked, so salvage operations are planned.

On my last beach walk, I came across snowy plovers.  Today a beached boat.
