Adorable Tufted Titmouse At The Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary On Cape Cod

Phil was sitting in the car in the parking lot at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary as I ran inside to make a delivery. As he sat there, this adorable little Tufted Titmouse landed in the flowering tree right above him. The car acted as a blind for him, so he could see the bird but the bird could not see him. He got out his camera and clicked away.

When I got back he showed me these great photographs of the little Tufted Titmouse… and the gorgeous flowering tree as a backdrop!

What a perfect photo-op!

Wishing you all a wonderful Mother’s Day! May you find a few moments to get outside and enjoy a little bit of Mother Nature!

Perfect Day For A Walk At Nauset Beach On Cape Cod

It was a glorious day for a walk on Nauset Beach,  part of the National Seashore, on Cape Cod! It was warm enough for just a sweatshirt and the sun was shining brightly!

I loved this photograph of Phil walking down the beach with the gorgeous clouds in the background. Perfect solitude…

 

Pretty Blue Spring Azure Butterfly At Fort Hill On Cape Cod

We saw this pretty blue Spring Azure Butterfly while hiking at Fort Hill. It was really difficult to get a photograph of it with its wings open as it was flitting everywhere and very close to the ground.

When it closed up its wings, it looks like a totally different butterfly.

It is a small butterfly with its wingspan 3/4″ to 1  1/4″.

Have you ever seen a Spring Azure butterfly?
