Capistrano has the return of its swallows, and Cape Code has the return of the Great White Sharks.

(May 13, 2025) – The New England Aquarium is urging the public to be aware of their surroundings and report shark sightings after the first white shark of the season was confirmed in Massachusetts waters.
On Sunday, May 11, a witness noticed a pool of blood off Smith’s Point in Madaket on the western end of Nantucket, MA. The person then saw a seal swimming toward the beach with a shark following behind. John Chisholm, an adjunct scientist in the Aquarium’s Anderson Cabot Center for Ocean Life, examined photos of the seal’s wounds and confirmed that the bite came from a white shark.
“This is the time of year when we like to remind people to be ‘shark smart’ as white sharks return to the inshore waters of New England, where they’ll hunt seals and other prey through the summer and into the fall,” Chisholm said. ...
It sucks to be a seal, but it's great if you are a fan of Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom.
It's also the 50th Anniversary of the movie, Jaws.
It's frickin' 40-something degrees, and overcast, heading into Memorial Day Weekend. I need to grasp any hope for Summer to sustain me through this typical New England Spring weather.
