It was one of those frigid mornings when we decided to take a ride up to overlook at Fort Hill. It was so pretty with the sun shining over the water at Nauset Marsh.
I love the clouds in the sky… they almost look like a giant fish. What do you think?
I frequently see Swans on the Salt Pond by the Visitors Center but I rarely see them swimming on Nauset Marsh. They were just beautiful as I took a photograph of them through the opening of the trees at Fort Hill.
So pretty, don’t you think?
We were taking a hike at Fort Hill the other day when I saw some movement up in one of the trees. I looked up and the tree was full of Bluebirds. How cool! This one stayed there long enough for me to take a photograph and then they all flew away.
Beautiful bird, don’t you think?
Even without the summer wildflowers and butterflies, Fort Hill is a wonderful place to hike during any season. There are still plenty of birds to see and the views from the trails are breathtaking.
I loved this trail with the gorgeous clouds overlooking Nauset Marsh. Have you ever hiked at Fort Hill?
I loved these bright red Winterberries along the boardwalk over the swamp at Fort Hill. They remind me of the holidays season with the red berries and dark green leaves.
Have you seen any red berries along the trail this season? So pretty, don’t you think?
All summer long, I kept looking for a good photograph of a Northern Mocking, but to no avail. I didn’t get any photographs, never mind a good one. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
And then the other day, we were taking a hike at Fort Hill and there was a Northern Mockingbird perched up on a branch. We got out our cameras and clicked away. He sure was ready to pose, flitting from branch to branch, for a long time.
Here are my two favorite ones. What do you think?
