Heather and I stopped off at a few viewpoints along the southern boundary road of the William J Finley National Wildlife Refuge on our way home from visiting Alsea Falls and Green Peak Falls.
The grass was in full bloom everywhere.
Absolutely gorgeous meadows of grass and hay as far as the eye could see.
In the future we will explore where this road goes.
Looking out into some of the refuge fields.
Looking south.
Another large field in the refuge. What a beautiful place!
Yesterday I drove out to William J. Finley National Wildlife Refuge to watch the sunset. The refuge is south of Corvallis a ways and has a great view of Marys Peak.

Out in one of the dry marshes.
I followed a little trail through the marsh to see what was out beyond civilization.
Goodbye sun. See you tomorrow.
A different dry marsh. This is a really nice refuge with plenty of places to observe all the critters that call it home.
Another area of the refuge.

Out on a farm access road between Philomath and Corvallis. Marys Peak and the fading rays of light in the center. It was a wonderful night for a photographic expedition. In the future, I will have to visit the wildlife refuge earlier in the day so that I can hike some of the many trails.
