A curious sight in the distance

We walked from the house where we were staying over to Manchester Beach via an unpaved road cutting through what was once private property but is now part of a State Park Nature Preserve. I’m hoping to get a chance to explore this area further; both times I walked out this way it was late afternoon and I ended up hurrying back before the sun disappeared; but there is much more to be seen, both on the beach and on the grazing lands between the shore and Highway 1 — including what looked like a couple of abandoned houses which I did not photograph, perched right on the edge above the beach. They were both much more modern looking than the red farmhouse that sits among tall trees, its windows boarded up but doors that were either open or completely missing. My last set of images from this walk coming soon!

We saw several of these; I think they may be egg sacs

A bit of kelp that looked to me like a tiny wig
