This Red-tailed Hawk has been hanging out in the trees next to the salt marsh…. looking for his next meal. We used to have a family of them in our yard each summer but their nest blew down a couple of winters ago and they have not rebuilt.
What a glorious spring day yesterday was at Coast Guard Beach! The weather was a balmy 43 degrees with a light breeze and sunny, sunny skies. We counted 18 paddle-surfers in the water looking for that perfect wave.
It’s the first day that we’ve been to Coast Guard Beach in over a month because of freezing temps and high winds. It was perfect and I’m sure the paddle-surfers thought so too. The waves were big and noisy and fun to ride. Perfect for the first day of spring.
Looking back toward Commercial Street and Pilgrim Monument from the docks in Provincetown, there is always so much to see. I loved this photograph as it captures the ambiance that makes Provincetown so unique.

What a crazy March we’ve had here on Cape Cod! We’ve had the coldest and snowiest days of the winter. I took this photograph at Boat Meadow Beach yesterday morning. Look at all of that snow on the beach and ice in the water.
