It was a glorious day at First Encounter Beach in Eastham on Cape Cod. Perfect for taking a walk on the beach or just sitting on the many benches enjoying the spectacular scenery.
It doesn’t get much better…
The little entrance hut at First Encounter Beach in Eastham on Cape Cod looks pretty desolate this time of year. But there are still many people who come down to enjoy a walk on the beach or just to sit in their cars and enjoy the ambiance of beautiful Cape Cod Bay.
First Encounter Beach is a place on Cape Cod with historic significance. It was so named because it is the site of the first encounter between Native Americans and the Pilgrims prior to their settling in Plymouth.
Pretty soon this little hut will be the welcome mat for all who want to enjoy a day at First Encounter Beach!
We saw several Brants on the shores at First Encounter Beach in Eastham on Cape Cod. The Brant is a small goose of the ocean shores that breeds in the high Arctic tundra and winters along both coasts.
The Brant is a medium to small goose with a black head, neck, and chest and a white, partly broken collar.
The Brant is a very beautiful and distinctive bird. I had never seen one before. Have you?
