When high tide comes in, the fishing boats go out. This boat was heading out of Rock Harbor very early this morning.
What a gorgeous sight, don’t you agree? Look at those clouds!
We had stopped to watch all of the bird activity at Arey’s Pond the other morning when we saw 3 Belted Kingfishers flying about looking for food. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
I couldn’t get them all in one frame but this one looked like a baby waiting for his parent to feed him. Meanwhile, we watched the adult eat what looked like a turtle and then something else…maybe a fish?
What a great experience and so much fun to watch!
The unique Indian Pipe wildflowers are blooming all along the Beech Forest Trail in Provincetown. They are such an interesting wildflower. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
Indian Pipe, a whitish, waxy, scaly wildflower with nodding bell-shaped flowers, is a plant with no chlorophyll which is why it is not green. It gets its nutrients from decaying matter. The flowers are about 1″ while the plant grows from 4-10 inches in the rich woods.
Have you ever seen an Indian Pipe wildflower? Such an interesting wildflower…
