Cape Cod Canal, Sagamore, Bourne, Massachusetts, USA



When I first arrived after the cold frontal passage, the sky was mostly clear but, the wind was howling.



The clouds developed quickly.



I wasn't the only one out enjoying this crisp day in early winter.



There were hundreds, maybe thousands of ducks hanging out along the edge of the water - and no boats transiting the canal while I was there.



The ducks seemed to be practicing various precision formations.



Perhaps they have a secret marching band that requires such arrangements.



I stopped at the beach on the way home, the strong onshore wind gave this gull a nice upslope condition to soar along the dune face effortlessly. It may be winter but, it's still spectacularly beautiful around here.

    1. It's not very crowded on the path - and very few vessels passing through.
