Beautiful Red-Tailed Hawk Atop The Windmill In Eastham On Cape Cod.

This Red-tailed Hawk had the perfect view high up on the windmill on the Eastham town green. It was fun to stop and watch him. (Click on blog link for other photo.) You can even see the Christmas lights on the paddles that were put up a few days ago.

That guy looks pretty high up in the 2nd photograph, don’t you think?

 

Double-Crested Cormorants On Cape Cod In December?

We were so surprised to see these 3 Double-crested Cormorants perched on this dock at Rock Harbor yesterday. I haven’t seen one in a long time and thought they were long gone to milder climates! (Click on blog link for other photo.)

But, the figures looked so familiar that we stopped and I got a couple of photographs. Have you ever seen a Double-crested Cormorant on Cape Cod in December?

Happy Thanksgiving To You All From Cape Cod!

I love it when the wild Turkeys court each other in our yard. The male’s displays are just beautiful. Look at that guy, gorgeous, don’t you think?

It sure will be a different Thanksgiving this year with the pandemic raging. I’m sure that a lot of you, including us, will be spending the holidays alone. Maybe this is a good time to find a few minutes and take a nice walk outside and enjoy all that Mother Nature has to offer!
