We have seen so many Willetts this summer, as they are very noisy and let you know they are around. They sound like they are singing “pill-will-willett.” It is a very distinct call. We saw these 2 Willetts on Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore, last weekend and many more flying around.
I thought it was pretty cool that I got two of them in one frame. Have you seen or heard any Willets yet this summer?
Memorial Day weekend has been just spectacular with sunny skies and warm temperatures! We took a long walk on Coast Guard Beach yesterday morning. It was warm enough for shorts and a t-shirt. And then walked on the bayside in the afternoon. It doesn’t get much better!
Boat Meadow Beach on Cape Cod Bay looks like a summer day with people even swimming!
There are a couple of trails through the dunes at Coast Guard Beach where you can walk to the salt marsh and follow it out to Nauset Spit and then to the ocean. It is a really pretty walk. We frequently do it in reverse… we will walk down the beach to Nauset Spit and then pick up the trail by the salt marsh on the way back. There is always something new to see.
I loved the clouds in this photograph. What do you think?
Any day is a perfect day for a picnic on Cape Cod! Just find that perfect bench or picnic table and you’re all set! There certainly are enough to choose from… and the views are spectacular!
This clam shell on Coast Guard Beach was picked clean by the Seagulls and still remained intact. I really like its simplicity all alone on the huge beach.
