Location: Newmarket NH, on the Great Bay
This week I observed a sign of spring when my family and I went to my relative’s house for an Easter party on the Great Bay. Every year my family goes to the Easter party where we love to play with cousins, play on the beach, go on pretty nature walks, and best of all see fireworks! My family loves to play on the beach, although its still too cold for swimming we still explore the shore, make sand castles, hunt for star fish and crabs, walk along the beach, and just relax! The beach is very pretty when the sun sets, the sand is a perfect golden yellow color, the rocks are dark and round, the sea gulls are chirping their last songs of the day, the waves are crashing on the shore, water still and gleaming in the sun light, sky is painting with colors of pink, rosey red, bright yellow, and orange, and the sun is slowly creeping behind the ocean.
Another favorite thing to do while we are at my relatives house is when we go on calm, nice nature walks. My relatives live on a private nature preserve/sanctuary so there are so many wild animals! When we went on the nature walk I new sssssssoooooo many birds!!! Almost every one I saw I could name! I saw Tufted Titmice, Black Capped Chickadees, Blue Jays, Northern Cardinals, Mourning Doves, American Crows, Northern Mocking Birds, American Gold Finches, House Sparrows, Mallard Ducks, American Robins, and I got a great video of Red–Winged Black Bird! While on the nature walk I even heard a Great Horned Owl, but could not see it. As we were coming back, it was already a dark warm night, and believe it or not, but there were so many mosquitoes and bugs out! As we were crossing a pond, I even heard a frog chirping! At the pond I also observed that the cattail plants had seeds coming off and floating in the air! Always half way back from the nature trail, we stop to see my cousins fire works! My older cousin Eric loves fire works and puts on a huge show for us over the Great Bay. This year he had over 45 firework packs he lit! I got great videos on the show too! Overall, I loved this years Easter Party!
