I was so lucky to see this gorgeous Monarch butterfly flitting about the Milkweed flowers at Fort Hill the other day. I hadn’t seen one in so long. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
Its colors were just magnificent! Have you seen many Monarch butterflies lately?
With all of the winter erosion on the Cape Cod coast, it is best not to walk on the dunes. Hopefully the beach grass will grow back and help mitigate the erosion.
It was a stormy morning at Fort Hill, but the rain had stopped for a bit and someone rode their bike up the hill and parked it at the National Seashore sign. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
We took a few photographs and then started playing around with them.
And then we couldn’t decide which one we liked best… what do you think?
It was a gorgeous beach day and people were certainly taking advantage of the perfect weather to spend some time at Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore and rated one of the Top 10 Beaches in the USA. Looks like summer is here!
The Milkweed is blooming and everywhere at Fort Hill but where are the Monarch butterflies? I was so excited to see two of them a few weeks ago, but have not seen any since. Hmmm…. Where did they go? (Click on blog link for other photos.)
Does anyone have any idea why there aren’t any Monarchs at Fort Hill?
Look at all of the Milkweed growing all through the fields at Fort Hill!
