There are a lot of this green lichens growing on the trees here on Cape Cod. I presume it grows so abundantly here is because of the humidity and moisture. But, when you get up close, it really is very pretty. And you see it everywhere you look.
Does anyone know what type of lichen it is? Any help would be greatly appreciated! This photograph is really a little clump that is only a couple of inches in diameter.
We were driving down the road in Orleans on Cape Cod when this Fox started running across the road. We thought it was going to cross the road and head into the thicket on the other side.
No, this Fox decided that he wanted to run right down the middle of the road for quite a while. We just followed behind…
This Seagull was hilarious in his theatrics of eating a clam on Nauset Beach in Orleans on Cape Cod!
I was walking along the beach when this Seagull flew over my head and dropped a clam on the beach about 10 feet away. It was smashed and ready to eat. He quickly pounced on it and enjoyed his meal to the utmost as another Seagull stayed closeby, looking for any handouts. Sorry, there were none when he was finished.
I just love how he is ingesting this clam while upside down. Hilarious, don’t you think?
This little array of “forest things” on this stump in Wiley Park in Eastham on Cape Cod really caught my eye the other day as I was taking a hike. It almost looked like a “still life” arrangement that someone has purposely put there. Maybe a squirrel?
I was surprised to see the “Please Keep Off the Dunes” sign at Nauset Beach in Orleans on Cape Cod so buried in sand the other day. It’s been pretty windy lately, as you can see by this sign.
Have you been down to Nauset Beach lately?
