Postcard - Ocean Shores, Washington - 1970s?

"S.S. Catala, Ocean Shores Marina, Ocean Shores, Washington. Moved to this lagoon in 1963 to serve as a salmon fishing base for sports fighing [i.e. fishing], this former World's Fair hotel ship capsized in a violent 100 MPH wind storm New Years Day, 1965."

The Catala is gone now, but occasionally parts of it resurface after storms. Now this area is home part of the year to the Alaskan Snowy Owls.

Let's play spot the snowy owl. This one is actually part gray which I guess means it is a young one.
