Surprise Northern Bobwhites On My Bike Ride Yesterday Morning On Cape Cod.
319 viewsEarly yesterday morning, about 5:30 am, it was so beautiful that I decided to bike out to Coast Guard Beach. I hadn’t biked there in quite a while. And what a treat awaited me there! (Click on blog link for other photos.)
As I was rounding the bike trail up by Coast Guard Beach, I could hear the distinct call of the Northern Bobwhite, “Bob-white! Bob-white!” I slammed on my brakes and listened. I could hear 2 Bobwhites calling to each other. Oh my! I hadn’t seen or heard one near there… ever!
I could see the first one on top of the roof of Coast Guard Station (in last 2 photos). He was just singing away. What a beautiful sound! It reminds me of my childhood by the beach where my dad taught me many bird calls. I stopped and took many, many photos, but I didn’t have my camera with me which has a nice zoom, only my iPhone.
I’ve seen (or heard) 4 Bobwhites this summer, and nowhere near each other. Maybe this rare Northern Bobwhite is making a comeback? I sure hope so! There used to be so many around here.

Beautiful Northern Flicker At Fort Hill On Cape Cod On A Foggy Morning.
1,444 viewsIt was so foggy yesterday morning that it was hard to even see Nauset Marsh. And then this little Flicker stopped by. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
It was pecking around for a long while on the ground and then flew up to the fence. Why not try to make lemonade out of lemons on a foggy morning?
I opened my window and clicked away. What do you think?
