Wishing you all Happy Holidays!
It is so much fun when my son from California comes to visit for the holidays! It’s time to frequent our favorite restaurants and go beach-hopping! I think we walked on 6 beaches on this day from high tide at Nauset Beach, Coast Guard Beach and Nauset Light Beach to the low tide flats at Rock Harbor and Cape Cod Bay beaches. He’s always impressed when Coast Guard Beach is voted in the Top 10 Beaches in the USA.
This is a life-size Gingerbread House at the Chatham Bars Inn. It is so cool! Their Christmas decorations are just beautiful!
I love this time of year when you drive around in the evening and see all of the holiday lights. These lights in Orleans across the street from the Hot Chocolate Sparrow were so cool!
They look perfect for Cape Cod, don’t you think? They are life-size so they look so real that you could go and sit and enjoy the night sky!
There are still a lot of red berries on the bushes and shrubs here on Cape Cod that you can see along the roads and trails while hiking. I saw these on the hike from Doane Rock to Coast Guard Beach. There were quite a few in some very tall bushes. I guess the birds have not eaten them all yet.
I thought these were so pretty, especially during the holiday season. What do you think?
The call of the Red-bellied Woodpecker is so unique, you can hear it from far away. This particular Red-bellied Woodpecker always announces when he’s coming by so I can get ready! He landed on our bird bath for a drink of water.
Beautiful bird, don’t you think? I love his coloring. Have you ever heard a Red-bellied Woodpecker’s call?
