Mass Audubon's jewel on outer Cape Cod, the sanctuary has 5 miles of trails through barrier beach, salt marsh, ponds, pine woods, and grassland. Lots of birds!

@BermudaCahowCam Is it a leaf that blew in the tunnel?? Land Crab is such a character!

[Wellfleet Bay WS @wbws]

2:08; 3:16; 4:12 2/26 It's hatching! What we see begins with a single pip (or hole) in the egg as the chick begins to work its way out of the egg. The chick starts to breathe external air through these cracks, this encourages it to make more. Watch live: https://t.co/0nRNniRNWd

Three generations chilling on a bench at a place known to us as Heaven on earth @wbws Another one of those places where Cape Cod isn’t Cape Cod without it. @MassAudubon

Today, 79 rehabilitated #SeaTurtles were flown to facilities in NY, NJ & FL to continue their recovery! With lots of cold-stunned turtles stranding on Cape Cod, the transport makes room for new arrivals to our Sea Turtle Hospital. There, our team has cared for nearly 400 so far!

Here's the full story of one lucky sea turtle, and the boy (my son) who saved him. https://t.co/MmVx88Efcu via @BostonGlobe

You never know what's going to wash up on the beaches of Cape Cod. My eagle-eyed 5-year-old just spotted this guy, a cold-stunned Kemp's ridley turtle, the world's most endangered sea turtles. We called it in, and someone from @MassAudubon came to rescue it and take it to @NEAQ.

@breesophiebree You're right! She does sound a bit like an old dial-up modem!❤

Wellfleet Bay Audubon Sanctuary worker Jess Ciarcia measures a cold stunned loggerhead turtle during an exam after being recovered about a mile up the beach at Sandy Neck ahead of the incoming tide on Thursday morning. The animal weighed 36 pounds. @capecodtimes

@breesophiebree W stick is kind of artistic. Y stick has both form and function.

[Wellfleet Bay WS @wbws]

Our first cold-stunned sea turtles of the fall have been recovered! This is our volunteer Tim O'Brien at Brewster's Breakwater Beach with the folks who found a live Kemp's ridley this morning. This turtle is heading now to the New England Aquarium for medical care and rehab!

Lincoln's Sparrows are very secretive during migration and can be a tough bird to see, but they are strikingly crisp when you actually get a good look at one, having it in the hand certainly helps.
