Pretty White Mouse-Ear Chickweed Wildflower At Fort Hill On Cape Cod

I saw this tiny, little white Mouse-Ear Chickweed wildflower along the trail while hiking at at Fort Hill in Eastham on Cape Cod. It looks the same as the Mouse-Ear Chickweed in Colorado.

The plant grows to about 6-12″ with 1/2 inch flowers from May to September. I especially like the little white ring of pistils in the center. So pretty and delicate.

Have you ever seen a Mouse-Ear Chickweed wildflower?

 

Pretty Yellow Buttercup Wildflowers At Fort Hill On Cape Cod

There are so many little, yellow Buttercups blooming at Fort Hill in Eastham on Cape Cod. I love seeing the little wildflowers start to bloom and bring such pretty color to their surroundings.

I saw this Buttercup near the first parking lot at Fort Hill a few days ago but if you keep walking, you will see fields of them all around!

Interesting Snail Shells On The trails At Fort Hill On Cape Cod

I saw these 2 pretty snail shells on one of the trails at Fort Hill the other day. I thought perhaps a bird had dropped them there after eating them for lunch. Their coloring was very distinctive.

A few days later I saw some more of these shells and then they started moving!   I then realized that they were indeed snail shells with the snails still inside!
