Everyone is talking about the rare influx of snowy owls in New England. Given the unprecedented migration, many people, like the folks on West Dennis Beach, have been lucky enough to have sighted one of these beautiful birds in the wild for the very first time.

Harwich Conservation Trust will offer a free guided walk in search of snowy owls from 1 to 2 p.m., with a spotting scope available.

Time to move over piping plover. Snowy owl is the new "it" bird at the beach. Bundled birders are migrating in daily to West Dennis Beach for sightseeing.

The crowd gathered Sunday near the mouth of the Bass River on a path leading to the western edge of West Dennis Beach.

But there was plenty of Polish pride Sunday afternoon at the monthly meeting of the Polish Society of Cape Cod and the Islands at the West Dennis Graded School.

The Mews Restaurant will celebrate the 50th anniversary of The Beatles' first appearances on "The Ed Sullivan Show" beginning at 6 p.m. at the restaurant, 429 Commercial St., Provincetown.
