Cliches all the way.

    I have to say that quite a few cliche boxes have been ticked, but Cape Cod is absolutely beautiful, with such a sense of space and sky.








    Humpback Whales feeding a Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary. We reckoned that about fifty of these creatures and a few Minke were feeding in a relatively close proximity to the boat. The whales thrashed their tails and dived causing huge rings of bubbles to erupt on the surface; suddenly excited masses of gannets and shearwaters started plunging into this malstrom and as they did so the vast jaws of the whales rose into the air.


    It was absolutely magical.


    This small and empty beach is part of the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History at Brewster, and in the sky above was an osprey, one of three young reared in the reserve that year. Later we saw an adult flying over Provincetown Harbour. Lots and lots of terns and swallows feeding along the edge of the water; the swallows skimming so close they almost touched you. Catbirds and chickadees calling in the scrub forest and marshland behind.




    A long cycle ride among amazing trails with blueberry bushes, rugosa roses and huge butterflies and I am now one happy bunny (someone found a box of fig-rolls!!!!!).
