The sunrises on Cape Cod are always so pretty and so different. This sunrise at low tide was just beautiful with the sun starting to peek through the clouds.

Determined Red-Tailed Hawk Looking For Lunch In Our Yard On Cape Cod.
We heard all this squawking from the birds outside so we knew something was up. And there was this huge Red-tailed Hawk out in the yard. (Click in blog link for many more photos.)
He was walking all about on the ground looking up at the torpedo tube on one of the feeders. These tubes keep the squirrels from climbing up the poles and eating all the bird seed. Was there something up there in the tube?
The hawk would fly up and try to attack the tube. There must be something in there. But it was one of those horribly hot day, so if couldn’t last too long in there. The hawk did this many times.
The hawk then found a branch above to watch and stalk his prey.
And then we saw this squirrel’s tail starting to slip out. Oh, oh!
Within seconds, the squirrel jumped out and the Hawk swooped down in pursuit of a good meal. It looked like the squirrel had made it away!
Until… later that afternoon I found the squirrel’s tail blowing in the yard. Guess he didn’t get away!
The Jetty In Provincetown On Cape Cod… Use At Your Own Risk.
There were a lot of people walking across the jetty from Provincetown out to the lighthouse. Good thing it was low tide because at high tide, it is impassable. (Click on blog link for other photo. )
You must plan ahead so that you don’t get stuck out there at high tide with no way to get back. Have you ever hiked that jetty?
Welcome To Wellfleet On Cape Cod.
The entrance road into Wellfleet is always so pretty and decorated so nicely for the season or the holiday. This weekend’s boat has a United States flag theme in honor of July 4, 1776.
“July 4th, or Independence Day, commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence” in 1776, which declared the 13 American colonies free from British rule.”
