I saw these bell-shaped pinkish mushrooms while hiking on the boardwalk of the Red Maple Swamp Trail at Fort Hill. I’ve never seen mushrooms like these growing on a tree before. Have you?
As you can see my the 2nd photograph, they are really small. Does anyone know what kind of mushroom they are?
The pretty yellow and orange Butter and Eggs wildflowers are still blooming on Cape Cod. They are very unique with their irregularly shaped flowers with spurs which grow right off of the stalk. The 1/2 to 1″ flowers resemble a Snapdragon and grow from July to September along roadsides and dry fields. I saw this one along the road to the beach.
Pretty, don’t you think? Have you ever seen a Butter and Eggs wildflower?
Rock Harbor is one of my stops along my bike route in the early morning. I love the peace and serenity of Cape Cod Bay that greet me at the end of the dock.
The pretty little pink and white bell-shaped Bearberry flowers that bloomed in early summer are now a deep red berry. I loved seeing them on the side of the trail at the Atlantic White Cedar Swamp Trail.
I’m sure they are abundant anywhere there are Bearberry bushes. So pretty, don’t you think? Have you ever seen one?
