This beautiful Northern Flicker loves our bird bath… either just to take a drink or to take a bath. I loved the lighting on him.
His coloring is so pretty; what do you think?

Great Blue Heron Fishing In Wiley Pond On Cape Cod!
If you want a truly beautiful hike through the woods and by a kettle pond on Cape Cod, try Wiley Park in Eastham. You never know what you might see!
I love hiking Wiley Park. There are so many different trails to take and I never get bored… there is always something new to see.
The other day we were walking over the bridge and I happened to look down and saw a Great Blue Heron fishing in the pond. I certainly was in the right place at the right time. He was so patient… just look at his eyes.
Have you ever hiked Wiley Park?
Double-Crested Cormorants At Boat Meadow Creek On Cape Cod.
I was just commenting to Phil a few days ago that I hadn’t gotten a good photograph of the Double-Crested Cormorant this past summer. I was just never in the right place at the right time. (Click on blog link to see other photo.)
And then as I was walking over the bridge on Boat Meadow Creek the other day, I saw three Double-Crested Cormorants. How cool!
This 2nd Cormorant was just standing on the river bank looking around. I loved his big, webbed feet!
Cute little guy, don’t you think?
Semipalmated Plovers At Boat Meadow Beach On Cape Cod.
I was so surprised to see so many Semipalmated Plovers at Boat Meadow Beach the other day. I thought they had migrated weeks ago. There were quite a few of them looking for food on the flats at low tide. (Click on blog link or additional photo.)
When doing a little research, I learned that Semipalmated Plovers are abundant here on the Cape until well into November!
