Evening At Hemenway Landing In Eastham On Cape Cod

It was a gorgeous evening for a walk at Fort Hill to Hemenway Landing. I sat on the bench for a bit just enjoying the view of Nauset Marsh.  I was surprised at all the boats anchored in the water and on shore.

Colorful, don’t you think?

Macro Photography With My New Leica Camera

We have been waiting for the new Leica camera to come out for a long time. They finally released the Leica C-Lux this summer and it is awesome! We just received it this week so this is my first macro with my new camera.

I was practicing taking a photograph of a rose in my backyard and noticed that a grasshopper was inside. What a treat!

Pretty awesome, don’t you think?

Beautiful Painted Lady Butterfly At The Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary On Cape Cod

This was the first Painted Lady butterfly that I’ve seen all summer here on Cape Cod. I usually see tons of them throughout the summer months. I thought it was so strange that I hadn’t seen any at all.

This was the only Painted Lady that I saw at the Audubon and it looked so small. I don’t remember them being so small. I researched on the internet and it says that they are a large butterfly, as I had remembered. I wonder why it was so small  and why I haven’t seen any all summer?

Anyway, it was such a treat to see one at the very end of summer. They are such a colorful butterfly. Have you seen any Painted Lady butterflies this summer?

Adorable Baby Swallow At Fort Hill On Cape Cod

This little baby Swallow was sitting on the wooden fence at Fort Hill waiting for its mom to come by a few days ago. There were 3 little ones and they were so cute!I wasn’t sure if they were having flying lessons or what… they would sit on the fence and wait for mom.

They were so cute!

I went back yesterday and the Swallows seem to have migrated already. I didn’t see one! Wow! That was fast!
