The Wild Roses are blooming all along the trails at Fort Hill. I loved this photograph of the trail overlooking Nauset Marsh with the tall cattails waving in the breeze and the pretty pink roses.

Love The Trees On Beech Forest Trail In Provincetown On Cape Cod.
There are some really cool trees on the Beech Forest Trail in Provincetown. In Colorado, we used to call them “snow knees” as the snow would come down the mountain and cause many of the trees to bend from the weight and ice. Many ended up just growing this way.
I’m sure these “snow knees” are not caused from snow and ice, but they are pretty cool, nonetheless!
Have you ever seen these trees on the trail?

Beautiful Orange And Brown Pearl Crescent Butterfly On Cape Cod.
The butterflies are back on Cape Cod and so much fun to try and photograph although they are not always cooperative! This little Pearl Crescent was flitting from flower to flower so I was able to get a couple of good photos. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
The Pearl Crescent is a small butterfly with a wingspan of only 1 to 1 1/2″. It is orange with black borders and scattered black markings. You can find them in open areas, including meadows, fields and roadsides. Have you ever seen a Pearl Crescent?
