Cape Photo of the Day - Photo #18


The latest trees to take center stage this spring are the Bradford Pears. They are like white clouds along the sides of the highways, and there are several impressive ones throughout the Cape. Here is a fine one on Chestnut Tree. Look familiar Becky and Mike? Hopefully we won't get any soggy or violent weather while they are blooming. They are prone to losing branches, or whole halves, when the weather places a burden on those bloom-covered branches. Let's hope the blue skies continue until the blooming is complete.

Postscript - Owner Becky tells me this tree did in fact split last year and that Richard's Tree Service was able to bolt and cable it back together. What an awesome rescue of a lovely tree! Nice job!
