Day 5 of Cape Pathways Walk

Today we started our walk at Mother's Bog in Brewster and ended in Nickerson State Park, also in Brewster but on the other end. We passed through the Punkhorn area also, a beautiful woodland area filled with ponds.We saw many of the usual woodland suspects including this sassafras tree.
We saw clumps of sheep laurel, also known as lamb kill. Most of this has passed by but there are still some beautiful blooms left to enjoy.
Wild grapes or fox grapes are not uncommon here.
But the most surprising thing was seeing milkweed almost in bloom and in some cases, already in bloom! It is very, very early for milkweed. This has been such a crazy spring!
