After listening to a CBC documentary this morning about the American poet Elizabeth Bishop, who had strong NS connections, I googled her, and came
across a poem called Cape Breton. It's a very evocative description of what could actually be anywhere in NS, but of more specific interest to NS naturalists, there are specific mentions
Of the Bird Islands, and of some specific birds. There's another one, Fishhouses, that is nicely evocative, and could almost (but probably isn't) be set on Brier Island, where I 'm currently enjoying the sunshine.
