Back to current events with our wildlife.

Cop Cormorant is directing traffic on Niles Pond.
Spring sun means preening for Easter.
Through the reeds, a group photo. SMILE
Painted Turtles are marshalling forces. “Attack when I give the word.”
A content Red-breasted Merganser couple parading the shoreline.
But we dive for food most of the day and it’s exhausting.
When the wind kicks up a chop we take refuge under the bushes.
Embarrassed seals at Brace Cove, giving up a prime sunning rock to two Herring Gulls.
Just missed a great photo of a wet River Otter cantering by under our bird feeder.
Overhead, there’s competition and a pecking order at the feeder.
A curious Common Grackle watches the activity, oblivious to the rain.
An upside to Spring rains is the rainbows.

 ~ CHAMBERCACC

The Rockport Division of the Greater Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce will hold the 32nd annual Rockport Community Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, March 30 at 2 PM.  The event is for the children of the town – preschoolers through grade one – and will take place at Millbrook Meadow, Beach Street, Rockport.

Pre-schoolers will be grouped in one section and kindergarteners and first graders in another.  In addition to assorted candies, chocolates, and small prizes, the hunt will feature four golden eggs to be redeemed for larger prizes. The Easter Bunny is also expected to make an appearance.  Children should bring a basket and arrive early – the hunt will begin promptly at 2.

This year’s event is being organized by the Chamber’s Rockport Division with key support from Institution for Savings and donations from Rockport Inn & Suites and The Seafarer Inn.
