Phil and I took a nice hike at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary and ended up out on the outer beach at low tide. There were no birds to be seen but there was this one Oyster shell which I thought was just perfect!
The early morning light was so pretty as I biked to the Eastham side of Rock Harbor. You can see across the salt marsh and the creek to the boats docked in the harbor. I don’t think many people see this side of Rock Harbor.
One thing I really missed when we lived in Colorado were the clouds. I love the clouds here on Cape Cod. They are always so different from little puffy ones over the horizon to the sky filled with them.
I loved this photograph looking out over the salt marsh toward Cape Cod Bay. What do you think?
Celandine is a leafy plant with hairy stems and tiny, deep yellow 4-petaled flowers in loose clusters. The flowers are only 3/4″ while the plants grows from 1-3 feet from May through July. I saw many of these wildflowers on the trail by the Salt Pond Visitor Center in Eastham in late August!
This Song Sparrow was singing away atop of this post along the side of the road at Fort Hill. The funny part was… it kept answering a Red-winged Blackbird nearby. Every time the Red-winged Blackbird would call out, this Song Sparrow would answer it.
So cute, don’t you think?
