We were taking a little hike down to Coast Guard Beach along Nauset Marsh on Cape Cod when I saw my favorite bird out in the tall grass. This Great Blue Heron was standing there, pruning himself. Look at those feathers… just beautiful!
On our way back he was moving around and you could tell he was looking for a meal in the little tributaries coming out from Nauset Marsh.
It was the perfect morning to pack a picnic breakfast and head out to the beach. Boat Meadows in Eastham on Cape Cod was the place to be. Just look at those clouds.
It was a glorious day with the temperature in the 60s. It feels a lot like spring…
There are a lot of this green lichens growing on the trees here on Cape Cod. I presume it grows so abundantly here is because of the humidity and moisture. But, when you get up close, it really is very pretty. And you see it everywhere you look.
Does anyone know what type of lichen it is? Any help would be greatly appreciated! This photograph is really a little clump that is only a couple of inches in diameter.
