Welcome!

Welcome to our new blog here at Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary. It is our goal to create an interactive forum for our staff, researchers, volunteers and members so that we can share information and resources. We will be updating the blog almost daily with new pictures, research reports, staff interviews and reports from the field so please drop in often. Remember, a blog is different than a website. You can comment and respond to the comments of others easily and we invite you to do so.

As we begin our new online adventure here's a word from our director, Bob Prescott.

This is so 21st century.

Thanking you for logging on to the launch of our new adventure. So many people ask what do you all do there at Wellfleet Bay, especially after all the summer folks go home?

We have many stories to share. There is so much going on and we want you to know the latest. Most members, let alone the public, don’t know of our extensive in-school classes, all the citizen science projects that are being conducted, and all the ecological management and ecological restoration projects that are underway.

Our goal is to share all those wonderful stories, get your comments and suggestions. There will be lots of images of landscapes, birds, wildlife, classes, and people enjoying nature. We hope you will share your stories with us.

Our goal is to have a couple of new postings each week. Staff and volunteers will be sharing their adventures and their work with you. Let us know what you think.

For me, a closet Luddite, this seems so futuristic. Of course it has been going on for a while everywhere. Let’s join the new information highway and have some fun with this. We are looking forward to getting to know you.

Bob Prescott
