There are lots of new pilings at Rock Harbor and so much activity. I took this photo from the Eastham side with the pretty reflection. It will be interesting to see what it looks like when all the boats are back and all the work is done!
Can you see the new Osprey nest that was erected? It has 2 new Osprey who have built a nest and settled in.
If you walk out to “the rock” at Rock Harbor during low tide, it looks pretty big. If you stand behind the jetty and take a photograph looking out at “the rock,” it doesn’t look so big. Perspective is amazing!
I love to walk on the beach and around the jetty and see Rock Harbor from the Eastham side. It seems so quiet this time of the year… until you turn around and see all that’s been going on there this winter.
It’s been a very busy winter at Rock Harbor watching the crews construct new bulkheads for the docks. It has been amazing what they have to do to achieve this. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
You can see the giant crane working to move some very heavy objects. That is one huge crane!
The project should be completed by the end of April when the weather gets nicer and the boats start returning.
It doesn’t look like spring is coming too soon as the ice is still pretty thick at Rock Harbor and way out into the bay. Before long, spring will be here and the boats will start coming back. But now, it still looks like winter!
