Signs of Spring on Cape Cod. Sign #1: THE HERRING ARE RUNNING!

I'm posting this a few weeks late. This is just the most fun and amazing sign of spring for me. The Brewster herring run by the grist mill is one of the most magical places on earth, much less Cape Cod. I swear fairies live there.
Every April during my many frequent trips by the herring run I keep an extra eye out for seagulls lurking about the run. There is a direct correlation between the density of hovering gulls and that of the migrating herring. It's awesome!
