Beach Cottage In Chatham On Cape Cod

This is such an awesome photograph of this “beach cottage” in Chatham on Cape Cod. It is all closed up for the winter, so it must just be a summer residence.

Pretty impressive, don’t you think?

I took it in color and black and white. Which one do you like better? Two totally different perspectives…

 

Buffleheads At Nauset Marsh On Cape Cod

The Bufflehead is one of the most unique-looking ducks that I’ve seen. I love the big white spot on the back of their heads. The female Bufflehead has a small spot on the side of her head.

I saw these Buffleheads at Nauset Marsh. They didn’t come close enough to get a great photograph, but you can see what they look like.

Have you ever seen a Bufflehead? They are here from October to May and then they migrate up to northern Canada!

Gorgeous Day For A Hike At The Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary On Cape Cod

It was a gorgeous day for a hike at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary. And it was low tide, so we were able to hike all the way out to the beach. It was spectacular! You can see all the way across Wellfleet Bay to Jeremy Point.

There is a bench at the end to sit and relax and enjoy those awesome views. Just don’t dawdle too long in case the tide is coming in. You don’t want to do what we did last time… wade in because the boardwalk was submerged.

If you have never been to the Wellfleet Silflie Sanctuary, put it on your To Do list. It is well worth it!

Great Blue Heron At Nauset Marsh On Cape Cod

I loved this photograph of this Great Blue Heron Silhouette at Nauset Marsh in Eastham on Cape Cod. It must be a favorite fishing spot as I’ve seen him there many times.

It wasn’t until I got home and looked at my photographs on my computer that I saw all of the other birds in the background. Pretty cool, don’t you think?

Perfect Day To Hike Nauset Marsh On Cape Cod

It was a glorious day to take a hike at Nauset Marsh on the National Seashore on Cape Cod. It was early morning so the birds were all out and singing away. There wasn’t a ripple on the water… it was as smooth as glass.

Perfect day for a hike in a perfect place!
