Reminiscing About Summer On Cape Cod…On A Cold, Winter Day

It’s supposed to snow today here on Cape Cod, so I thought it would be fun to post a photograph of a hot, summer day at Boat Meadow on Cape Cod Bay.

I loved the colorful beach umbrella with no one under it! And the clouds were spectacular!

Pretty, don’t you think?

Baby Red-Tailed Hawk On Our Deck On Cape Cod

Thursday morning we heard a tremendous boom outside of our home  on Cape Cod just after dawn. I thought the generator had blown up. Phil came running in. When we looked out on the deck, we saw this Baby Red-tailed Hawk lying on our deck… on his back with his feet straight up in the air. We knew he was still alive because we could see him breathing. He  had hit our sliding glass door pretty hard.

We watched patiently as he slowly stood up after about 10 minutes. He looked around for over an hour and then flew off. Whew!

Thank goodness he was ok.

This photograph is just after he stood up. He looks a bit stunned, which I’m sure he was!
