I thought this was such a cool photograph with the Baltimore Oriole and the Orchard Oriole sharing the jelly feeder. You can really see the difference between them when they are side by side.
We are so lucky to have so many of these gorgeous birds here on Cape Cod.
It was a gorgeous beach day and people were certainly taking advantage of the perfect weather to spend some time at Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore and rated one of the Top 10 Beaches in the USA. Looks like summer is here!
The tiny, hot pink Deptford Pink wildflowers are blooming all along the trails at Fort Hill. I’ve never seen so many!
One interesting fact that I learned while doing a bit of research: The name ‘Deptford Pink’ refers to the town of Deptford, England where the plant once grew in abundance.
Such a pretty, delicate wildflower… have you seen any yet this year?
This was another gorgeous sunrise over the salt marsh. Wow! You can see the reflection of the sun and the clouds. And look at that single rose looking out over the water…
I was so surprised to see this family of raccoons with a mom and 5 little ones foraging about on the salt marsh early one morning. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
I had never seen raccoons on the salt marsh before. I watched them for a while; it was quite fascinating. Have you ever seen raccoons on the salt marsh?
