Also, Shipwrecked in Falmouth , one of USA Today’s Best Bars in the nation, was giving away extra furniture this week in front of its Grand Avenue spot. Check their Facebook post for details.

Minks, rats and a Cape Cod legend

Driving past a neighborhood patch of brush and wetlands, I watched as a critter, sleek and dark with a long tail, slid across the road. My brain tried to register similar animals I’ve seen on Cape Cod. But It was too small to be a fisher. And it was too far from significant water to be an otter.

Fresh Cape Cod Seafood Tastes Better With A Garden View At This Massachusetts Spot

This Cape Cod seafood stop has the kind of menu that makes a quick dinner decision suddenly much harder. Lobster enchiladas sit alongside lobster rolls, raw-bar favorites, fish tacos, poke bowls, and chowder, so the usual “just grab something by the water” plan can turn into a full-on debate.

This Quiet, Sandy Massachusetts Beach On Cape Cod Hides Behind A Difficult But Wildly Rewarding Trail

For anyone who loves a walk on the beach, the Great Island Trail on the Outer Cape region of Cape Cod may make both feet and heart go pitter-patter. That's because the 3.9- or 8.8-mile trail (depending on which loop you take) takes in some of the best ocean views and sandy dunes in Massachusetts. It starts a few miles west of downtown Wellfleet, the beachy beauty of Cape Cod without crowds. From the fast-filling parking lot of Chequessett Neck Road, the trail heads south through an aromatic pitch pine forest to reach the beach. A few steps in from the parking lot, find the grave of a Wampanoag woman, now covered with shells, pebbles, pinecones, and other talismans. Discovered in 1953, the 400-year-old bones below remind hikers that they are walking on Native land.

After osprey decline, activists call for menhaden fishery regulations

Perched on a ladder 20 feet in the air, Gina Purtell uses a rake to clear trash, leaves, and built-up bird excrement from the top of an osprey nest. The nest, a manmade box on stilts lodged in the marshes of the Westport River, is little more than an AirBnb for the migratory osprey that furnish it each spring and summer.
