There are so many different trails to the beaches on Cape Cod. I loved this one at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary which leads you out to Cape Cod Bay. The clouds in the sky were so pretty.
It looks so peaceful. What do you think?

The Colorful Baltimore Orioles Are Back On Cape Cod!
We’ve had our grape jelly out for a couple of weeks now waiting for the Baltimore Orioles to come back to Cape Cod! And here they are! What a gorgeous bird… orange and black and white. The female is a bit muted in color but still very pretty.
I love how they hang onto the wire just to get a bit of that decadent grape jelly!
Welcome Back! We hope you make another home this spring in our yard!
Lots Of Fiddler Crabs At The Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary On Cape Cod
If you walk out to the beach at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary at low tide you can see thousands and thousands of Fiddler Crabs scurrying about the mudflats and into their little holes in the mud. They are everywhere!
You can see the vast mudflats in the second photograph. They seem to go on forever.
Have you ever seen a Fiddler Crab? You can tell the males by their exceptionally large claw which is shaped like a fiddle, thus the name “Fiddler Crab.”
Northern Flicker Building A Home In Our Tree On Cape Cod
This Northern Flicker is drilling out a hole for his home in one of the trees in our backyard. We’ve heard a lot of drumming recently on one of the trees that came down a while back and were delighted to see a Northern Flicker working away. He’s got a pretty big hole there.
It would be so cool to see some little Northern Flickers in that tree!
