Visit several sites described by Thoreau in Cape Cod, including Nauset Light, Goody Hallett’s Meadow, Newcomb Hollow, and the Wellfleet Oysterman’s House. Van trip with short hikes. (Note: The lighthouse is closed that time of year, but we may be able to gain special access for a fee.) Penn State will provide transportation.

Saturday, November 17
10am - Noon - Boat Trip: Seal and Seabird Cruise
Wildlife changes with the seasons on Cape Cod. Two of the most visible that brave the cold waters of the Cape are seals and seabirds. We will cruise out of Wellfleet Harbor to Billingsgate Shoal and Cape Cod Bay to view gray and harbor seals and migrating sea ducks (including eider, scoters, and long-tailed ducks) as well as loons, northern gannet, and black-legged kittiwake. Information on identification and natural history will be provided.
This will be part of a public trip (up to 35 people aboard) which will help reduce cost ($30 per person vs. $650 to $700 to charter whole boat).
2:30 - 5:00pm - Field Walk: Searching for Cold-Stunned Sea Turtles
Each year in late fall, sea turtles become cold-stunned from dropping water temperatures and they strand on bayside beaches. Staff and volunteers from Wellfleet Bay canvass beaches after high tides in search of stranded turtles. Penn State students will be assigned a beach with naturalist and stranding coordinator Dennis Murley. Students will assist with processing found turtles, which includes weighing, measuring, and preparing for transport to New England Aquarium.
