There were a flock of Brants swimming along the shore on Cape Cod Bay. They are very distinctive with their black head, neck and chest and a patch of white lines on their upper neck.
They love the saltwater bays from November to May.
I loved this photograph of the boardwalk across the Red Maple Swamp at Fort Hill on Cape Cod in black and white. It is such a cool hike and the boardwalk looks like a great place to sit and enjoy the exquisite surroundings.
This little Eastern Blue was so cute taking a bath in our bird bath here on Cape Cod. He wasn’t even afraid to bathe while the Mourning Dove stood by watching him. He then shook off on the side of the bird bath.
The last photograph shows him high on a branch in the tree drying off and warming up in the sun.
It must be almost spring. I’ve seen a lot of birds at our bird bath this winter getting a drink of water, but not too many having a bath! Too cute!
It was a gorgeous day a few weeks ago to take a walk on the beach by Rock Harbor in Orleans on Cape Cod. The clouds were just spectacular as the temperatures were in the high 60s. Unbelievable for February on Cape Cod!
March has been exceptionally cold. We’re waiting for spring…
I’m always scouting out for the perfect picnic spot whether it be on the water or some other scenic place in Cape Cod. These 3 picnic benches are just perfect as they overlook Rock Harbor in Orleans and Cape Cod. Bay.
It doesn’t get much prettier! Can’t wait for our first picnic!
