In contrast to early budding trees with red and pink along Pamet Point Road, winter’s left these boggy, mucky areas in rich browns, ochres, and grey.

If you’re traveling south-southwest on Pamet Point Road in Wellfleet, MA, on your right is a large patch of marshy land. This photograph, at the meeting point of Old County Road and Pamet Point Road, marks the northern border, where there are still larger trees. The reeds in the foreground indicate the transition to a wetland with grasses, rushes, moss and trees (of some sort). The colorful buds end here, but there are other flowering trees further down the road. 

Cool, grey day, early Spring, near Vershire, VT.
