--001a11c13926d5cba8051910defc Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 This weekend I paddled the Musquodoboit from Elmsvale to Bridge Pool (between Meaghers Grant and Musq. Harbour). Lots of interesting birds along the river, and while I didn't do a great job of keeping a list as I went, I had 50+ species on the trip. Highlights were lots of Common Nighthawk (about 15 on the first day), a pair of Broad-winged Hawks calling and flying over the river, singing Northern Waterthrush, lots of Pewees and Veery, and Bobolink (my brothers spotted). We also saw 3 Wood turtles on sandy banks along the river. In one spot there were 2 wood turtles and about 7 snappers. The snappers all took off when we arrived, but the wood turtles stayed put. There were some broken turtle egg shells around. Not sure what all that was about. -- Jeff MacLeod Halifax --001a11c13926d5cba8051910defc Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr">This weekend I paddled the Musquodoboit from Elmsvale to B= ridge Pool (between Meaghers Grant and Musq.
