📰 News we're reading
• I guess they call them storm petrels for a reason (capeandislands.org) — Birders are flocking to First Encounter Beach in Eastham after a lingering nor'easter pushed rare seabirds close to shore, creating an exceptional viewing opportunity. From storm-petrels and jaegers to thousands of Northern Gannets and a few Sabine's Gulls, the storm's aftermath has turned local beaches into a short-lived spectacle for anyone who loves Cape wildlife.
