Sea Clam Buffet

On Saturday, we had a big storm. With high winds and above average tides due to an approaching full moon the east facing beaches were really stirred up . On Monday evening I went to Nauset Beach to photograph full moon rise at sunset, one of my favorite themes. Upon arrival, I noticed large areas of sand were covered in gull tracks. Then I realized why there was so much bird traffic. The storm had washed up a huge number of sea clams, and the gulls were having a feast!
