The drive out on Macmillan Wharf always has something new to see. I really liked these two blue fishing boats that were docked there.
Great colors, don’t you think?
There was a nice flock of about 30 Ring-necked Ducks at Herring Pond the other day. They were just gorgeous! It was the first time we had seen Ring-necked Ducks on Cape Cod.
We saw a lot of these ducks out in Colorado way up high on a pond in the Rocky Mountains, so it was a treat to see some of them here too.
Ring-necked Ducks are medium diving ducks that have a blue-gray bill with a white ring and a black tip. I always wondered why they aren’t called “Ring-billed Ducks.”
Beautiful bird, don’t you think? Have you ever seen a Ring-necked Duck?
Even without the summer wildflowers and butterflies, Fort Hill is a wonderful place to hike during any season. There are still plenty of birds to see and the views from theĀ trails are breathtaking.
I loved this trail with the gorgeous clouds overlooking Nauset Marsh. Have you ever hiked at Fort Hill?
