A gull stands, waiting for an alewife scout to appear. In early to mid-April, depending on temperatures, the alewives school in the bay and then begin their trek up the Run to spawn.A few scouts come in first, and gulls and humans come each day to see if they have arrived yet. An ever recurring sign of spring on the Cape.
