Description
The best birding happens before most people are out of bed. This guided morning walk takes you through Wellfleet Bay's remarkable mix of habitats—pine woodland, freshwater pond, salt marsh, and open beach—each one teeming with a different cast of birdlife.
A Wellfleet Bay naturalist will lead the way, helping you spot and identify songbirds, shorebirds, wading birds, and more while sharing what makes Cape Cod such a vital stop along the Atlantic Flyway.
The route covers less than 1.5 miles at an easy, exploratory pace, so whether you're a seasoned birder or picking up binoculars for the first time, there's plenty to discover. Each outing is a little different, making this a Cape Cod morning ritual worth coming back to again and again.
