It’s that time of year when everything is blooming and the trails at Fort Hill are lush. My favorite hike there is the Red Maple Swamp Trail which takes you down to the boardwalk. Have you ever hiked it?

Hiking Little Cliff Pond At Nickerson State Park On Cape Cod.
250 viewsThe hike around Little Cliff Pond has so much diversity. You pass by Cliff Pond, which is pretty spectacular, where you can see people enjoying swimming, fishing, boating, or just enjoying their day at the beach. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
From there, you hike up and around Little Cliff Pond where you have a view of the pond almost the entire way. It is so pretty and quiet hiking through the woods.

We had just started out on a hike when I looked up and saw this gorgeous Bald Eagle soaring above. Wow! ( Click on blog link for other photos.)
I’ve only seen a couple of them on Cape Cod, so this was a big treat! As we hiked around the pond, I was hoping to see it again. And there it was, way up high in the tree, overlooking the pond.
You can see how far away he was in the last photo which I took from across the pond. If you look very closely at the tallest tree to the right, you can see his silhouette. So cool!

White-Tailed Deer Enjoying Breakfast By The Boardwalk on Cape Cod.
267 viewsI was out for an early hike at Fort Hill when I saw this White-tailed Deer on the boardwalk munching away. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
She looked at me and I told her it was a beautiful day to be on the trail. She just continued eating away as I walked by. She wasn’t bothered by me at all.
