Relax At The Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary On Cape Cod.

The trails at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary have many benches along the way so you can relax and enjoy the spectacular views. This is one of my favorite benches along the Try Island Trail. You can see way out on the salt marsh.

Beautiful, don’t you think?

 

Pretty Pink Wildflower At The Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary On Cape Cod.

There are still a few wildflowers blooming on the trails on Cape Cod. I saw this delicate pink wildflower while hiking on the Bayview Trail at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary.

I’ve looked and looked in my books and on the internet but can’t seem to identify it. Does anyone know what kind of wildflower this is?

So pretty and delicate, don’t you think?

Pretty Fall Hike On Cape Cod.

The leaves are starting to turn here on Cape Cod. I loved the colors in this photograph on the John Kenrick Woods Trail in Orleans. Part of the trail goes through the White Pine woods and the other part goes down this trail to Arey’s Pond.

I couldn’t decide if I liked the horizontal one or the vertical one better. What do you think?

White Cedar Swamp Trail In Wellfleet On Cape Cod

I always love to hike the White Cedar Swamp Trail, part of the National Seashore, in Wellfleet on Cape Cod. It is so diverse taking you through scruffy bushes to oak trees to a forest to the White Cedar Swamp where you hike over a boardwalk and then back. It is a loop trail.

One couple summed it up perfectly today when we chatted on the boardwalk. They said it was such a “magical place.” I couldn’t think of a better way to describe it.

Put it on your “To Do” list when you visit Cape Cod!

Adorable Catbird Singing Away On Cape Cod

This little Catbird was singing away on the Red Maple Swamp Trail at Fort Hill on Cape Cod. We could see him through the bushes in the distance, perched on the branch.

He looks like a young one with his fluffy feathers, don’t you think? So cute!
