Baby Raccoons At Our Litttle Bird Bath On Cape Cod.

We originally bought our little bird bath, which sits on the ground, for the little animals that needed a drink but couldn’t reach the taller bird bath.  We realized that all the animals and the birds liked to drink from it and the birds loved taking a bath in the little one.

I looked out the window yesterday evening after dinner and there were these two little baby raccoons taking a drink. They were just adorable. They stayed around the yard for a bit. They must be the little ones from the mom that was coming around a couple of weeks ago looking for food.

So cute, don’t you think? Just maybe a little too big for that bird bath! Ha!

Lots Of Seals Off Of Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod!

There are so many new and huge sandbars along Coast Guard Beach this summer, there is sure to be an influx of seals hanging around. That’s exactly what we saw as we took a walk down the beach at low tide yesterday. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

You could hear the cacophony of sounds coming from the seals, that somewhat resembled a chorus, before you could see them. They were just relaxing in the waves and singing away. They are quite entertaining.

Have you seen any seals yet this summer?

The Boardwalk On The Red Maple Swamp Trail On Cape Cod.

The boardwalk on the Red Maple Swamp Trail at Fort Hill is lush this summer. It’s a great hike over the swamp and you’re sure to see lots of wildflowers and hear the diversity of birds singing in the trees.

It’s one of our favorite hikes!
