It was a spectacular day for a walk at Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore. The weather has been very warm for this time of year, in the 70s and sunny. It feels like early September, not late October.
I loved this photograph of the path leading down to the beach from the Coast Guard Station in the background. What do you think?
I love the hike from the the Visitor’s Center in Eastham around Salt Marsh Pond and then along Nauset Marsh. It’s a wonderful hike along the marsh and then back through the woods.
Last weekend was just beautiful and a perfect day for that hike!
Yesterday was a glorious day, sunny and in the lower 70s… a perfect day for a bike ride! I took off to Boat Meadow Beach which is where I took this photograph. It was high tide and there were people sitting on the beach and one little boy was swimming. The clouds were spectacular!
Then I biked over to Rock Harbor which is another beautiful place to visit any time of the year. Then on to the Cape Cod Rail Trail over the salt marshes and home. Who ever thought I could bike in shorts and a t-shirt at the end of October? I wasn’t going to miss this gorgeous day!
The views at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary are many and they are breathtaking. I took this photograph from the lookout on the Goose Pond Trail heading out toward the beach. You can see Tri-Island in the distance on the right which is also a fun hike. You may be treated to many shorebirds feeding in the marshes.
In the far distance you can see the white beaches of Wellfleet and Jeremy Point. It doesn’t get much prettier!
The Carolina Wren is such a pretty little bird with a beautiful song that you would recognize anywhere. We’ve had a pair of Carolina Wrens and their family living in our yard, but sometimes we don’t see them for days.
This little guy was loving a bath in our birdbath. I think it was one of the babies from the summer. Cute, don’t you think?
