Port Angeles Nature School, a project of CascadiaNow

Port Angeles Nature School, a project of CascadiaNow We are an environmental education non-profit in Port Angeles, Washington. Interested in helping? Get in touch with us soon! www.panatureschool.wordpress.com

Originally envisioned as just an outdoor preschool, our dream is to someday provide affordable nature-based outdoor education programs to all grade levels of our public schools, on a regular basis, not just once or twice a year! We will focus on the preschool for the next few years while we establish our roots, as there is currently a huge demand for early-learning providers in our community. We are currently teaching outdoor preschool classes at a public park in Port Angeles; visit out web page for enrollment info! We want every kid in every neighborhood to grow up loving where they live while loving learning. We want a school that brings kids and families from all corners of our community to all of our local parks.

Happy Spring!

Happy Spring!

Happy from all of us at Point Reyes National Seashore, including this young, freshly-weaned northern elephant seal pup! Weaned pups are hanging out on our shores for a little while longer as they grow a little older. Now that their mothers have left them to go find food, they're teaching themselves how to swim before they head out on their first forage trip. This year, the weanlings have decided that Drakes Beach is a perfect place for them to hang out, and so Drakes Beach is closed to the public for the time being so that these little ones can rest - and this one decided that a little nap amongst the spring daisies was the perfect spot!

Though Drakes Beach is temporarily closed until the weanlings depart and the number of seals present on the beach declines, you can still get a fantastic view of the pups from the sidewalk there.

Thanks to our Interpretation & Natural Resources Assistant Ellen Murphy for this great shot! As always, please use your zoom lens when taking photographs of wildlife.
