I was so surprised to the huge amount of beach grass that has washed up at Boat Meadow Beach. It must be 2-3 feet deep in some areas! (Click on blog link for other photo.)
If you look out, there is very little beach grass on the salt marsh. It’s all washed up on the beach. The high winds and waves of the blizzard must have cut it all off. Have you been to Boat Meadow lately?
It seems like the fence in the parking lot at Nauset Light Beach, overlooking the ocean, keeps getting moved farther back into the parking lot.
I remember during Covid in 2020, we would bring a picnic lunch there and have a “car picnic” while overlooking the water. We could see the surfers and even the sea birds out in the water.
So much has changed in the past 6 years. Mother Nature has been hard at work and the erosion to the dunes and beach has been quite significant.
We stopped at White Crest Beach to see what it looked like after the recent storms and to reminisce about all the fun times Phil had surfing there.. back in the day. Does anyone know how that very tall pole got there and how it has stayed there with all of the crazy weather and tides?
I took this photo the week before the blizzard… I wonder if it still there?
We’ve seen so many new and very interesting birds at the Town Cove by the Orleans Yacht Club this winter. Some have even been lifers for us! (Click on blog link for other photo.)
These male and female Wood Ducks have been hanging around for a while. I usually see them together which is so sweet. Have you seen them? Beautiful colors, but very different, on both the male and female.
