Wow, it does sound like a great trip, even with these relatively brief descriptions! I love the waterfall and cove picture :t:
Nice to see as well as hear about your mammal encounters. I particularly like the otter clip. It sort of clarifies that there is a very big difference in behavior of river otters and sea otters - someone commented recently on how river otters were non-stop motion and I was a little surprised, but obviously that is because I'd seen more documentaries on the sea otters - a very relaxed group as you say. Very nice seeing two whales and quite a few other sea mammals.
200 waxwings - also not bad! I guess you saw some sort of ground squirrel... maybe someone knows what kind is likely.
