We've seen some of the beautiful scenery and flora the area offers. How about some of the animal inhabitants in their native surrounds? This photo was taken by a motion-activated camera east of North Bend WA ten miles from me- yikes!

We have the cunning cat and the oblivious deer. Doesn't she know she should be hiding in a pile of grass or brush somewhere? Hope it wasn't Bambi's mom....

I had a young cougar roughly 60 lbs sitting in front of my garage one evening watching me do dishes. I'll tell you the ole backyard barbeque isn't quite the same after you see something like that! Once I got brave enough to go outside I put up a sign on the garage to my husband that said " COUGAR: DO NOT LET ANIMALS OUT! BUY MORE LIFE INSURANCE!" LOL shame on me.
