A Fresh Mussel Feast For this Hungry Seagull On The National Seashore On Cape Cod

I saw this seagull hovering above the rocks on the National Seashore on Cape Cod as it let the bundle of mussels fall and crack open. How ingenious!

Of course, another Seagull was waiting nearby to share in the delicacy. But no, this one was not to be shared! Ha!

Beautiful Northern Flicker On Our Bird Feeder On Cape Cod

This was such a pretty photograph of the Northern Flicker in our backyard. You can see all of his colors: his spotted chest with the black semicircle, the black patch near his beak, the red spot on the back of his head and a very distinct yellow under his tail which is very prevalent when he flies.

Such a gorgeous bird… Have you ever seen a Northern Flicker? I bet you have heard one!

The Tides Are Really High Here On Cape Cod

We were so surprised to see all of the white caps and extremely high tides on Cape Cod Bay. You can hardly see the beach in this photograph at Boat Meadow on Cape Cod with the tides so high.

Wow! We’ve had quite a few days of extreme weather from the high tides to high  winds and frigid temperatures to all of the snow! I wonder what tomorrow will bring?

Forecasters are predicting another big winter storm tomorrow into Wednesday! Gotta love this New England weather!!
