I spent my morning in a choice spot along the Upper Bay of Fundy Minas Basin on the beach at Five Islands Provincial Park. After a stormy day and night the wind was easing up a little, enough that I could lean into it and not lose my footing. I tried to capture the force of the incoming tide but should have created a video instead.
What a coincidence when I came across the CBC documentary “Kingdom of the Tide” featuring great information about our region in the world. Here is the link:

While the entire documentary is informative but you are especially interested in the Bay of Fundy, start watching at minute 28 through 25. From riding the tidal bore on the Shubenacadie River, gliding on rust coloured ocean floor mud, to observing mud shrimp, amazing time-lapse photography to illustrate tidal changes and the migration of the semi-palmated sandpipers this documentary provides a tiny glimpse into our rugged environment.
Wishing everyone a fantastic weekend!
