Driving down the road at First Encounter Beach reminds me of one of the highest drives that we used to take when we lived in Colorado. All of the trees had branches on one side and were totally bare on the other side. You could tell exactly which way the wind blew on top of the mountains. And… you can tell here too!

I love seeing all of the new shorebirds that have migrated this time of year on the beaches. We saw a Least Sandpiper (on left) which is rare but regular and a Dunlin (on right) which is common here in the fall. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

There were so many birds at Boat Meadow. Have you noticed the uptick of shorebirds in the past couple of weeks?

What’s All That Noise At Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod?

We were taking  a walk at Fort Hill a couple of days ago when we heard all this noise coming from across Nauset Marsh by Coast Guard Beach. It sure sounded like a huge herd of seals, but it’s so late in the season. Were there still that many seals around?

So yesterday we walked out to the spit on Coast Guard Beach and not only was there a herd of seals on one of the sandbars, but we were greeted along the way by many of these curious creatures. Have you seen the seals on Coast Guard Beach lately? They were everywhere!
