Happy first day of Spring! Pretty soon it will be warm enough for those much-treasured outdoor picnics.
This is one of our favorite picnic spots overlooking Nauset Marsh on one side and Coast Guard Beach on the other.
It doesn’t get much prettier!

Old Foundation At Boat Meadow Beach On Cape Cod?
The beaches on the bay side have changed so much this past winter. Boat Meadow Beach has had several truckloads of sand dumped at the end of the parking lot because the water keeps eating away at the shore. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
I noticed what looks like an old foundation that had been uncovered on the beach the other day. And nearby looked like a part of an old chimney or maybe part of a foundation made with rocks.
Does anyone have any idea what these may have been? Its amazing how your imagination can take over and lead you to wonder if there used to be a house right there and who lived in it and were there other houses nearby?

Two Beautiful Black And White Brants At Boat Meadow Beach On Cape Cod.
We always see the Brants in the winter time out on the “islands” past Boat Meadow Beach, but rarely near the shore by the beach. So when these two Brants swam in and had lunch right in front of us, we were thrilled. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
They were far enough away that I could get out of the car and get a few photographs without scaring them away. We watched them for a while while they had their lunch which consists mostly of eel grass found in the tidal flats.
On the distant shores of one of the peninsulas were about 100 other Brants scavenging about on the edge of the shore. They are such a beautiful bird with that broken collar pattern on their necks.
What a treat! Have you ever seen a Brant?
