Bird Watching - Juan de Fuca Scenic Byway

Along the Northwest Coast of the Olympic Peninsula, bird watchers will find a medley of unique and interesting birds. Nesting and playing along the shores are many local and migratory species of birds, such as oystercatchers, phalaropes, marbled murrelets, and several unique species of gulls. 

A healthy population of bald eagles reside beside the coastal estuaries along Highway 112. The coves and inlets along the shoreline also provide essential habitat for shorebirds and roosting gulls.
