The Spotted Wintergreen wildflowers are blooming and so pretty here on Cape Cod. They are such an interesting wildflower as they face downward while they bud and bloom and then they face up to the sun when they have finished blooming. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
They grow in the woods and bloom during July and August, so you still have plenty of time to find them.
Have you ever seen a Spotted Wintergreen wildflower? We have so many in our yard this year!
We hiked the Morris Island Loop Trail for the first time in years… since South Beach washed away and Morris Island became exposed to the ocean. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
The hike now starts down the road where you take a “right of way” to the beginning of the trail. You can only hike the trail when it is not high tide as the beach is totally covered at high tide and you can’t get by.
While still a pretty hike, it does not have the same ambiance as walking down those high wooden stairs looking out toward Monomoy Island and onto the beach. Mother Nature definitely does what she wants to…
