This Seagull was standing on this rock at low tide at Coast Guard Beach on Cape Cod just yakking away. He was so funny looking with his bill wide open!

Scallop Shells Under The Bridge In Eastham On Cape Cod
I always stop on the Bridge Road bridge to see what I can see in the waters below. This time I happened to look down on the rocks and see them piled high with Scallop shells.
I wonder how the shells got there. Did the Seagulls drop them on the rocks and then feast on the Scallops inside? Why were they all piled so near each other? I thought it was a great photograph and a great story… whatever it may be!
What do you think?
Bird Feathers On Cape Cod
Phil and I were taking a walk from Doane Rock to Coast Guard Beach in Eastham on Cape Cod the other day. I saw this huge Red-tailed Hawk feather on the trail. I thought it was so pretty that I took a photograph. I put a penny next to it so you could see how big it was.
A couple of days later I was filling our bird bath and noticed this tiny little feather floating in the water. I wonder what kind of bird it was from? So I put a penny next to it so you could see how tiny it was.
Pretty cool, huh?
Lesser Yellowlegs At The Mass Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary In Wellfleet On Cape Cod
This Lesser Yellowlegs was strutting about Goose Pond at the Mass Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary in Wellfleet on Cape Cod. What a beautiful bird.
A Lessler Yellowlegs is about 10.5″ tall with a long bill and bright yellow legs. We have seen them frequently at the Mass Audubon in Wellfleet. This is a great place to hike through the woods, along the river, out through the marsh and to the beach. There are so many different varieties of birds and wildlife to see.
Have you ever seen a Lesser Yellowlegs?
