Refreshing Signs Of Spring

There are signs of Spring starting to bloom and how refresing it is to see bright colors popping out of the earth .

Stormy Skies Over Peggy's Cove

This is an image from the Peggy's Cove webcam this afternoon . I loved the way the clouds where dancing over the ocean .

Kestrel Falcon

I guess I was looking out the window just the right time to see what I believe was a kestrel falcon.

I have never seen one before so it was awesome to see one today . Whatever the type of bird it was , it was beautiful and fun research to learn more about our feathered friends !!!!

Rough Waters

Today was the perfect day for a walk on the beach because it was full tide , crashing waves , just the right temperature but watching the boat bop up and down with the rhythm of the waves I thought I am so thankful that I am not a fisherman !!!!

Agate

Went to the beach again today and my daughter and I found these pieces of agate . I love to search the shores of the Fundy for rocks and rock formations , I consider them treasures from the Bay !!!!!

Low Tide Along The Fundy Shore

Wow, what a day to go for a walk along the shore's of the fundy. There was blue skies ,waterfalls , rock-hunting with the feel of Spring in the air. Your timing has to be just right because the tide has to low in order to walk back from where you started . I love the cliffs along this part of the Fundy Shore!!!!!!

Boat Returning To Halls's Harbour

Treasures of the Bay

This photo is of seashells that were gathered along the shore of the Fundy . My daughter took this photo and it represents her love of the Bay . Just like her mom !!!!!!!!

Stanley Takes A Dip In The Bay

This video is of Stanley , my daughters dog in which we had him down to the Bay . He doesn't seem to mind that it is March and that the water is very cold in the Bay of Fundy !

Baxter's Harbour

Spring is in the air and I have been beachcombing for the last few days. These photos where taken in Baxter' s Harbour on Sat. March 10 . What a great walk and there is still some ice left on the falls and the cliffs.

Sunset March 10 2012

These images were taken from the Nova Scotia webcam site tonight at sunset . The sky was glowing !!!!!

Face in the Stone

As I was walking along the shores of the Fundy I took this photo ,my eye caught it right off. At first I thought it was a monkey ,but later looked at it and saw a dog . The coastline along the Bay of fundy has unique rock formations !

Cape Split

This photo shows Cape Split in the background along with crashing waves .

Sunset Hike To Sheffield Vault

Yesterday I went for a sunset hike to Sheffield Vault ,starting off at Long Beach. This part of the Fundy shore is located between Baxter's Harbour and Halls Harbour . Had a great hike for 2 hours at sunset , once again the Bay showed its Beauty !

Birds Feeding In The Snow

The weather the last couple days has consisted on heavy flurries making everything snow covered . I captured these photos today while the snow was still on the trees as the weather is suppose to turn mild . Spring will arrive soon !!!!!!
