Nauset Beach in Orleans on Cape Cod is the perfect beach, in-season and off-season. It is part of the Cape Cod National Seashore and just a gorgeous beach to walk for miles and miles.

I  love this photograph of the entrance to Nauset Beach with the beautiful clouds in the background. The parking lot is fairly empty, only the die-hards who love the beach at any time.

Innovative Seagull Eats A Clam At Boat Meadows On Cape Cod

This Seagull was so much fun to watch as it was trying to open a clam that it had found at the beach inlet in the water. First he leaned headfirst down to get the clam. And then he deposited it on the sand and stared at it.

He then put it back in his beak and started to fly, all of a sudden dropping it on a rock in the water.

He proceded to find it under the watwer, pick it up and swim to shore and have himself a feast. He was one mightly proud seagull!

Pretty amazing, huh? He not only knew where there was a rock under water, but knew exactly where to retrieve the clam once it was smashed.

Great Refraction Reflection At Rock Harbor In Orleans On Cape Cod

I loved this reflection of the channel markers at Rock Harbor in Orleans on Cape Cod.  The channel markers, which are trees, are used to guide the boats in and out of Rock Harbor.

The water was like glass so you could really see their reflection. I thought it was so cool how the markers are refracted at such an angle as they hit the water.

What do you think?

 

Gorgeous Day For A Walk On Coast Guard Beach In Eastham On Cape Cod

We took advantage of many gorgeous winter days to walk along the beaches in Cape Cod, especially Coast Guard Beach which has been rated as one of the top 10 beaches in the world! Henry David Thoreau, in his book Cape Cod,  named Coast Guard ‘The Great Beach’. A fitting name as the beach seems to go on forever sharing sands with other famous names such as Marconi and Nauset.

This was a perfect day for a walk on Coast Guard Beach! The temperatures were in the 60s and just glorious!
