Strange Things you see at the Beach

[FishNmemories]

Beauty day yesterday, decided to go for a walk at one of our local beaches. I arrived to see...well best to just check out the pics

And within a short time the alpaca just got in

The lady said they have been taking this male alpaca for rides for 13 years, too cool. While I was distracted taking photos of this performance, I managed to lock my keys in the vehicle. However, I didn't notice until after my 2 hour walk on the beach, then I figured out how easy it is to break into my ride.

Hey let's refresh a really old thread....cause a family member shared this photo with me! Two completely normal looking turkeys, uncooked and clean, alongside a salmon carcas, on the beach at Spanish Banks mid-November. What the hell!?!?

Looks like somebody was just playing a pretty basic game of turkey, turkey, fish. Seems like nothing out of the ordinary.

Ok i’ll bite. couple summers ago we were approaching the big rock launch in CR after a beauty day of fishing. my youngest says “ Dad there’s an elk in the water.”

i look to where he’s pointing and it wasn’t an elk but the biggest black tail buck i’ve ever seen. He was swimming from Quadra Island and was a couple hundred yards from the shore. he was a massive 5x5
i figured he’d be tired when he got to the beach but he shook off the water from his hide and took off running like a bat out of hell.

Found this years ago on the east side of Galiano. Apparently launched from Nanoose and our navy lost contact.

Only one piece of garbage today I noticed on Long Beach. A mangled plastic water bottle. Looks like from a container ship or drifted from Japan.

US Navy came and picked it up. Apparently it is a real torpedo but was unarmed. They can usually follow it after firing it but something went wrong. We had heard about it on notice to mariners but never believed we would actually see it. It was on the beach just south of Porlier. We fished there frequently from our cabin on Thetis.

Not sure if the year but 2003 sounds about right.
It was a long time ago !!

Found this at Shell Beach on Portland Island this summer. Not sure how rare of a tool it is or if it's even a tool. I think it's pretty cool though.

Chupacabra, pretty sure.

OK makes sense I thought it was a much smaller object.
