Seabrook Beach

I visited Seabrook Beach before sunset.

I rolled up the pants and went into

the water which was unusually warm.

There were plovers following the retreating tide.

The dogs having fun on the beach.

My favorite :)

Garden Harvest

Tomatoes in the Stevens-Coolidge Place garden.

Something got to this one .. scary :o

The frog pool had loads of yellowjackets on the edge.

This one was doing the backstroke seconds earlier.

Boxford Ponds

I drove the ten miles to Boxford via back country roads.

First stop was a visit to Spofford Pond again.

As I was about to move on to the next pond

I hear screetching from nearby trees and saw

a hawk fly off into the sky.  I was very lucky

because it made several circles overhead

and I got to snap these..

Baldpate Pond

Night Skies
