Egrets in the Marsh behind Friendly’s

The Egrets are one of my favorite birds that come to visit us here on Cape Ann. Going around the rotary today spotted some in the marsh and the tide was very high.

High Tide on the Annisquam

The fog was so thick in Magnolia on Tuesday could not even see the pier, went over to the Annisquam near Wingaersheek Beach and it was clear.
