The snow has all melted and the calendar may say spring but there aren't many obvious signs yet along the Bournedale Trail at the Cape Cod Canal.
I came upon these feather remains of a gull.lying in the trail. I wonder how it came to this fate? Gulls don't fly in the woods. Was he flying by overhead and just died and fell? Did he die elsewhere and was dragged here by a fox or other critter? Where are the rest of the feathers? Seems an odd place to end up for a gull.
The picnic area at the Herring Pond parking area is quiet. This tree knot reminds me of an owl's eye - or the eye of Sauron.
