Juvenile Bald Eagle On This Osprey Platform In Cape Cod.

This Juvenile Bald Eagle was enjoying a fresh fish meal on this vacant Osprey platform overlooking the salt marsh.

I took a “double take” when we drove by this “nesting” platform and saw such a large bird on top. We turned the car around, got the cameras out and clicked away. It was pretty far out in the middle of the salt marsh, so it was hard to get a great photo.

I haven’t seen many Bald Eagles on the Cape and Phil had never seen one so this was a big treat!

Crazy, High Tide On Cape Cod Yesterday!

With the three major storms this past week and heavy rain and wind, the tides have been huge! Yesterday was quite an adventure! (Click on blog link for other photos.)

Bridge Rd. was closed about an hour before high tide as the salt marsh washed over the road.

At Rock Harbor, Young’s Seafood Market had lots of water in the parking lot and the road behind it was flooded.

You can see the water rising up by the launch area and into the parking lot as the tide came in. Wow! Crazy tides lately!
