We were hiking along the trail when Phil stopped to look at something on the side of the trail. I had totally missed it! There, camouflaged by the leaves, was a toad perfectly hidden in the leaves. Can you see it?

Horned Lark At Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod.
137 viewsI saw a little movement on the sand at Coast Guard Beach and I could tell it was not a Piping Plover. I quickly got my camera and clicked away. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
As I looked at my photos, I could tell it was a Horned Lark. I had seen them there only once before, so that was pretty cool.
“The Horned Lark, with brown upper parts and white underparts, is distinctly known for its yellow face with a black mask which extends down, its two black “horns,” and its black bib.”
Did you know it’s the only Lark native to North America? Have you ever seen a Horned Lark?

Unique Indian Pipe Wildflowers Are Blooming On Cape Cod.
220 viewsThe Indian Pipe wildflowers are blooming and gorgeous here on Cape Cod. Lacking chlorophyll which results in being totally white, they are a very unique wildflower. I’ve seen many of them over the years growing in our wooded yard.
“The entire plant is a translucent, “ghostly” white, sometimes pale pinkish-white and commonly has black flecks. The leaves are scale-like and flecked with black on the flower stalk. As the Latin epithet uniflora implies, the stem bears a single flower. Upon emerging from the ground, the flower is pendant (downwardly pointed).”
