It seems like everytime we take a walk down Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore, the coastline changes a little bit. The sands come in and go out as the beach gets bigger and smaller, and and the sand gets higher and lower.
This was pretty cool as we were walking back from Nauset Spit. You can see how the shoreline has made many little inlets along the coast. I haven’t seen this before.
It was a perfect fall day to go kayaking at Nauset Marsh, part of the National Seashore. I loved the coloring with the sun on the tandem kayak and the deep blue water of the saltmarsh. You can see Nauset Spit in the background.
There were a few Semipalmated Plovers scurrying around on the flats at Skaket Beach the other day. They sure do move fast! Love the distinctive black ring around their necks.
Semipalmated Plovers usually migrate right around now, so you’re lucky if you see one!
This past week was unbelievably warm here on Cape Cod. It was such a treat to wear shorts and a t-shirt, take a long walk on Coast Guard Beach to Nauset Spit and take a few long bike rides. Before our walk on Coast Guard Beach the other day, we had a wonderful picnic at one of our favorite picnic tables overlooking Nauset Marsh.
It doesn’t get much better, especially in October!
