    Whoohoo!  First unassisted landing today.  One of these days I'll
get up the nerve to kick my CFI out of the plane!  (But not quite yet).
Anyway, a quick question on the New York Sectional.  If you look on the
interior side of Cape Cod from Wellfleet to just past Denis, there are
these little dots, (they look like NDB dots in a way).

    I am not referring to the blue wildlife protection area dots for the
Cape Cod Nat'l Seashore.  From the Jeppsesen Private Pilots manual, they
are not Cranberry Bogs nor are they Sand Dunes (PP. 4-53) and if I had
to compare them to anything, they seen to be closest to the
Non-Perrenial Lake indications on the Sectional Legend.  That simply
can't be how far out land extends at low tide though, (almost one mile
it looks like).

    Basically put, what the heck is that indicating??

    Also, out of curiosity more than anything, what other really wierd
or unusual stuff can be found on the NY Sectional that I can learn
about.  Anyone have a strange symbol  they have questioned?

                                    Thanks in advance,

                                    --John Quinlan
