There were so many Painted Turtles sunning themselves on these logs off of the Silver Spring Trail. There were loving it! Must be a sign of spring!
You can always see a lot of Painted Turtles on the many logs and dead trees in the pond.
The Bufflehead is one of the most unique-looking ducks that I’ve seen. I love the big white spot on the back of their heads. The female Bufflehead has a small spot on the side of her head.
I saw these Buffleheads at Nauset Marsh. They didn’t come close enough to get a great photograph, but you can see what they look like.
Have you ever seen a Bufflehead? They are here from October to May and then they migrate up to northern Canada!
It was a gorgeous day for a hike at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary. And it was low tide, so we were able to hike all the way out to the beach. It was spectacular! You can see all the way across Wellfleet Bay to Jeremy Point.
There is a bench at the end to sit and relax and enjoy those awesome views. Just don’t dawdle too long in case the tide is coming in. You don’t want to do what we did last time… wade in because the boardwalk was submerged.
If you have never been to the Wellfleet Silflie Sanctuary, put it on your To Do list. It is well worth it!
