Dolliver’s Neck at High Tide

Posted on by Pat D

The tides have been running at their more extreme ends during the recent full moon phase. It’s always interesting during a very high tide to see swimming water fowl when I look out the back porch of our apartment. Here are some views of the recent high tide at Dolliver’s Neck and Old House Cove. Check out the video especially if you enjoy the sounds of the pebbles washing back.
