ROADKILL HIGHWAY. ANOTHER VICTIM.


Another victim along Highway 236. Note the boot at the bottom of the photo. I'd love to create a Roadkill Map of Nova Scotia.

EDGE SIGNS


NO, TO DRILLING & FRACKING


DEATH BY ROADKILL OR BIRD?


One of several type of dead animals seen laying beside the road on Hwy 236. No tire tracks were visible here so I am wondering if this was caused by a bird.

CROSSING THE SHUBENACADIE RIVER


Group of tidal rafters were just packing up as this photo was snapped with a boat still in the water. Note the current pass by those abandoned railway bridge supports across the Shubenacadie River. The current was swift and the wind strong. Walking over the roadway bridge (see shadow in the foreground) seemed precarious. The railing was not high.

RURAL ADVENTURES AND PLACES TO VISIT


Things to do for the body and mind. If a car was available these sites would be checked out. Anyone been on those tidal rafting adventures? Absolutely wonderful ... and you get to meet people from all over the world. Creatives dot the rural landscape. Gallery 215 intrigues me. Next time I come by ...

ROADKILL LITTER THE ROADWAY


Roadkill was common along Highway 236. You knew something was up as you approached a wicked smell. Looking at the ditch this deer was seen, hollowed out by scavengers and maggots. This made for unwelcome suppertime conversation.
