Yesterday was very windy and and the kite surfers were brightening up the sky with their multi-colored kites by the salt marsh at First Encounter Beach. They were a sight to see!
It was fun just to watch their different moves as they sailed by each other. Did you get to see them yesterday?
It was low tide and there were a lot of birds at Boat Meadow Beach. Many were seagulls but you could see other species in the distance, although they were too hard to identify.
I’ve never seen a seal at Boat Meadow Beach, so I was very surprised when I looked out at high tide on Wednesday morning and saw three seals swimming about. They stayed for quite a while. I wonder if the high, high tide had brought them in closer to shore. I hope they left before low tide came…
And then yesterday morning, they were back again at high tide, swimming around by Boat Meadow.
With the past few winters washing away so much sand at Boat Meadow Beach, the town has brought in trucks full of sand which they are dumping at the edge the beach. Hopefully this will slow the erosion that keeps eating away at the beach during the off-season.
