Beautiful Yellow Daffodils On Cape Cod For Easter!

Spring is coming… very slowly! We’ve had a few warm days and a lot of cold, windy, rainy days. But, the Daffodils are starting to bloom and bring some vibrant color to the landscape.

Wishing you all a Happy Easter! May the Easter Bunny bring you lots of chocolate and may you find a few minutes to get outside and enjoy everything outside!

Garter Snake On The Red Maple Swamp Trail At Fort Hill On Cape Cod.

I heard a little rustle in the leaves as we were walking along the boardwalk on the Red Maple Swamp Trail. It didn’t sound like an animal as the sound was too consistent. I thought perhaps it was a snake. (Click on blog link for other photos.)

I had never seen a Garter Snake before so it was pretty cool when we spotted it among the leaves and dead branches on the side of the trail. “Garter snakes are indigenous to North America and found widely across the continent. Most common garter snakes have a pattern of yellow stripes on a black, brown or green background, and their average total length is about 22 inches.”

Have you ever seen a Garter Snake?
