Birding and Clamming~Chatham, Ma

Howdee all,

While staying in Cape  Cod..

We had a few combo~Kayak~Clamming~Birding trips

This particular day was foggy..

We were a bit late for low tide and the tide was coming in quickly…

Jeff had to keep moving the Kayak

We also had to keep moving to dig for clams…as the water was creeping up on us.

There were plenty of birds around

Jeff birded while nephew David and I did the digging.

Some of the Black-bellied Plover were showing nice color

(please let me know if my bird IDs are wrong)

Short-billed Dowitcher

I watched it for a while....

As it poked around the rocks....

Finding its lunch....

  Marbled Godwit~

With a basket full of Steamers..it was time to head

Back to shore..

Past scenes such as this…

later that evening

Jeff and David

Shucking Clams and Oysters..

We had a wonderful Dinner…

Fried Clams and Oysters over pasta

and Steamers!

Jeff and I are in Lexington, Ma. now. We are still not in Homey~we hope to pick it up tomorrow.
