The tides on the Cape have been unbelievably high the past few days. The salt marsh by Boat Meadow looks like Cape Cod Bay has moved inland! Wow!

Lots Of Smoke In The Eastham Area On Cape Cod Yesterday Afternoon.
I went out for a walk after lunch yesterday and noticed it really smelled like smoke. I looked around but didn’t see anything, so I decided to walk over to Boat Meadow. A car from the Eastham Fire Department passed me along the way with its lights flashing. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
When I got there, Deputy Fire Chief Eric Littmann was explaining that the smoke that was settling over the Eastham area was from a fire up in Boxford, MA. They had gotten calls from many concerned Eastham residents who had smelled the smoke. When the wind kicked up, the smoke made its way down here to the Cape and looked like a blanket over Eastham and surrounding areas.
Did you smell the smoke yesterday afternoon?

Cute Little Downy Woodpecker In Our Bird House.
This little Downy Woodpecker has been hanging out in the bird house outside of our bedroom window. We see him each morning as it starts to get light. He must be spending the night there.
He is so cute when he puts his little head out the door and looks around. I love the feathers on his chin… it looks almost like a little goatee.
How cute is he?!
