Weather and Wildlife — pat morss

Posted on by patmorss

The beginning of a New Year.

A gig crew getting in a last harbor row before New Year’s Eve champagne.
Canada Geese noisily headed out over the ocean.
A skirmish over suet, the preferred dessert.
Fishing vessel headed home into Gloucester.
Toward a fiery sunset over the Boston skyline.
A Red-tailed Hawk could care less as we walked right under him.
Rain on the coast finally changed to the first snow of 2024.
Deer in the Audubon Sanctuary remained alert.
Two nights later a 70 mph southeast storm hit, causing tree losses.
Waves were modest, but there was a build-up of foam, looking like sponge rubber.
Heavy rain and driveway erosion compromised newspaper delivery.
Calming down last evening, but we’re expecting another storm tomorrow night.

The Lobster

I believe you only have a few more days to get yourself over to The Lobster at 115 East Main Street in Gloucester before they close for the winter. They will be closed for Friday dinner for a private party but are open today 11:30-8:30, tomorrow for lunch from 11:30-4:00, and then all weekend for both lunch and dinner. I had the baked haddock with a caesar salad and some truffle fries and every bite of it was tremendous. https://www.thelobsterofgloucester.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=wix_google_business_profile&utm_campaign=4853144082179927035
