Chasing the Light: Cape Cod
Photographer, Allie Richards
November 1 - December 21, 2025
An exhibit featuring the photographic work of Allie Richards and explores the changing light of our natural world. It is divided into two parts: Nocturne - Cape Cod After Dark, and Golden Hour.
Winter really took its toll on our equipment. We’ve installed a temporary cam so you can see these beautiful birds while we restore the original. But the repairs are costly, unexpected & affect support for our other programs and experiences.

Have you met our new arrival? She may look like an eel, but she’s actually a fish: a juvenile Ocean Pout! The Ocean Pout gets its name from its oversized upper-lip, making it look like this bottom-dwelling fish is “pouting”!
We are grateful for the generous donation of this animal by Cameron Smith.
