This Red-tailed Hawk had the perfect view high up on the windmill on the Eastham town green. It was fun to stop and watch him. (Click on blog link for other photo.) You can even see the Christmas lights on the paddles that were put up a few days ago.
That guy looks pretty high up in the 2nd photograph, don’t you think?
We’ve noticed a lot of trucks bringing truckloads of huge boulders to First Encounter Beach in the past few weeks, so we thought we’d go investigate. They must be getting ready for the winter storms and the high tides. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
You can see in the first photograph where the dunes are being washed away and where the rocks are being placed to help delay the erosion. What an effort!
The 2nd photograph shows a few of the houses and just how close they are to the edge of the dunes. I sure hope those boulders hold up to Mother Nature. You look at those houses and think… What an incredible view!
We were so surprised to see these 3 Double-crested Cormorants perched on this dock at Rock Harbor yesterday. I haven’t seen one in a long time and thought they were long gone to milder climates! (Click on blog link for other photo.)
But, the figures looked so familiar that we stopped and I got a couple of photographs. Have you ever seen a Double-crested Cormorant on Cape Cod in December?
