Rock Harbor is beautiful from the Orleans side or the Eastham side. I love biking down the mile long road to the Eastham launch where you rarely see anyone, except the boaters.
This was such a tranquil day. I loved all of the Cormorants sunning themselves on the docks. So pretty, don’t you think?
I loved this black and white photograph of the last days of summer at Rock Harbor in Orleans on Cape Cod. I love the retro look of the boats and the dock.
I have seen so many Great Blue Herons lately in the salt marshes here on Cape Cod. This Great Blue was stalking something in the water along in the high grass, searching for his next meal.
And then he darted down toward the water and caught lunch, as you can see him with his beak wide open.
Rock Harbor in Orleans on Cape Cod is a unique little harbor which is ruled by the tides. The boats go in and out closer to high tide so they don’t get stuck in all of the Cape Cod Bay sandbars. The channel into Rock Harbor is also unique as it is marked by “trees,” or what look like trees. It really is a beautiful place to visit.
I was walking down the beach the other day when I took these two photographs. I couldn’t decide which one I liked better. What do you think?
