Natural History

The Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary offers a beautiful natural setting, a variety of animal and plant life, and a wide selection of educational programs for adults and children. But did you know that it is also a great place for you to get involved with natural history and research? From bird sightings at your backyard feeder to sea turtle patrol and rescue, Wellfleet Bay has a way to keep you connected to nature. Contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Cynthia Franklin, cfranklin@massaudubon.org for more information.
