The Red-Winged Blackbirds Are Back On Cape Cod!

1 Comment

When I was taking a walk near the salt marsh a few days ago, I heard the call of the Red-Winged Blackbird. I love that call! “Cuck-a-ree!” It is just beautiful! To me, it means that spring is here! They usually come back in March, but this was earlier than I remember.

Yesterday when I was at the Coast Guard Beach, there were 2 Red-winged Blackbirds calling back and forth to each other from the top of the trees in the parking lot. So, this is my first photograph of a Red-winged Blackbird this year! What a treat!

Beautiful bird, don’t you think? Have you heard their distinct call yet this spring?

Spectacular Waves At Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod!

1 Comment

Phil and I were taking a walk on Coast Guard Beach the other day when we noticed the waves were unbelievable. They were huge and crashing  so close to shore that you could see a curl where you almost expected a surfer to pop out!

We got a few photographs and then it was over in a matter of minutes. Gorgeous, don’t you think?
