Hi Ian
Salt water anglers are reporting Grey Triggerfish are
quite common this year. On the Atlantic side at least.
I haven't been out myself but soon.
Have a nice late summer

I thought last night's westerlies might bring in shorebirds, and
indeed there were lots on the mudflats at McCormacks Bch, E. Passage -
Bernice and I  counted ca. 190 SEMI-PLOVERS, seven GR. YELLOWLEGS, and
a few turnstones and peeps.As usual, lots (maybe 40) adult RING-BILLED
GULLS.

Thought Rainbow Haven Bch, along the loop n.e. of the beachhouse,
might be equally productive, but it wasn't. At the extremely low tide,
they may have been out on distant flats of Cole Hbr.

Nice to see the Sea-Lavender (Limonium) in flower also a number of
other dune and saltmarsh plants.

Of interest was a beached, somewhat decomposed Gray Triggerfish, Balistes
capriscus. They've been regular here with warming waters in recent
decades, and I've seen a couple of stranded ones before in mid- to
late summer.

Cheers, Ian

Ian McLaren
