I was walking along the shore of Cape Cod Bay when this Willett flew in about 15 feet from me. He sauntered about for a minute until he turned around and saw me. And off he flew…
Pretty photograph, don’t you think?

Great Blue Heron And Osprey At Boat Meadow On Cape Cod
Early yesterday morning we drove by Boat Meadow Marsh and my favorite bird, the Great Blue Heron, was standing among the reeds in the marsh. Perfect photo op. So when I got home I got my camera and walked back.
Blue (as I call him) was still there. Great! But only for a minute and then he flew away. Oh no! I missed him.
A couple of minutes later I saw 2 large birds flying in the sky. I thought they were courting. They seemed to be in sync.
It wasn’t until I went back and looked at my photographs closely that I realized that an Osprey was chasing the Great Blue Heron.
