The Great Blue Heron has always been one of my favorite birds, especially on Cape Cod. They are so majestic as they fly and are so elegant.

This Great Blue Heron landed on the salt marsh right by our new home.

It was fun to think that I can walk by these salt marshes each day when we move into our new home and, hopefully,  see a lot of different species of birds!

We had our first sighting of a Red Fox at the Audubon Sanctuary in Wellfleet on Cape Cod the other day. He was walking through the woods and then lay down for a nap.

It was pretty cool as we had never seen one here before.

Have you ever seen a Red Fox? Look at that bushy tail!

I took a double-take when I saw this Parry’s Harebell wildflower on the side of the road in Orleans on Cape Cod. It was huge!

There are also Parry’s Harebell wildflowers out in Colorado but they are only about a 3/4  inch flower. This flower was about 4″ in diameter and about 3 feel tall and so pretty.

Have you ever seen a Parry’s Harebell?

This was such a pretty sunset on Nauset Beach in Orleans on Cape Cod a couple of weeks ago.

I loved how the flowers and the sky were almost a matching golden color.

What do you think? I liked it so much I used it as my screen saver!

The Boats At Meetinghouse Pond In Orleans On Cape Cod Are Getting Ready For Winter

I was so surprised how many boats had been taken out of the water this week at Meetinghouse Pond in Orleans on Cape Cod. Wow!

They are stacked pretty high! I wonder if they will stay that way for the winter or if they have another “home” for the cold winter. Does anyone know what they do with all the boats?
