I spent most of the day at Soley Cove with two adventurers today. While I captured more great images of Jurassic Aeolian Sandstone cliffs and sea stacks what truly demanded my attention was the performance the Bald Eagles put on for us. We counted three individual adults and one juvenile taking advantage of the warmContinue reading “Of Eagles and Herons…”

Between Heaven and Earth: Textures, Textures Everywhere!
The intention was to get some fresh air at Partridge Island Beach. The reward was the most fantastic sky. But wait, turning toward Crane Bluff we experienced textured colour of a different kind… On the way back to the car we stumbled across this fabulous driftwood log. It was too good not to spend someContinue reading “Between Heaven and Earth: Textures, Textures Everywhere!”
To The Far Side of Partridge Island We Ventured…
August 4th had been circled in red on my calendar for weeks! My tide app informed me that it would be THE day for the lowest tide during the Sturgeon Super Moon phase. I knew then where I would spend the morning hours. When one reaches the end of the natural gravel path with theContinue reading “To The Far Side of Partridge Island We Ventured…”
Phinney Green in Evening Light…
I was hoping to harvest some dulse tonight. Instead I found a view where heaven meets earth… pure magic! Tomorrow is another day… for harvesting dulse that is. Wishing everyone a peaceful evening, Anna
Cliffs of Fundy Geopark UNESCO Revalidation Event at Cape d’Or
After last night’s special event at Cape d’Or my energy to prepare a proper blogpost was depleted. The event’s focus was on tourism and activities provided by business operators since the inception of the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark. Local Guys Adventures and my guided tour business “Tide Rollers & Mudlarkers” were front and centre withContinue reading “Cliffs of Fundy Geopark UNESCO Revalidation Event at Cape d’Or”
An Evening to Remember…
It was an honour to be invited as a business operator located in the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark to take part in a Tourism Nova Scotia presentation for recertification of the Geopark. The event took place at Cape d’Or with a meal to die for! Witnessing the full Sturgeon Moon rise as we hiked backContinue reading “An Evening to Remember…”
Soley Cove – Where Red Sandstone Cliffs Contrast with an Azure Sky
The brief: “We have one day to explore outside of Halifax. We would love to experience the Bay of Fundy!“ This was the perfect challenge that arrived via text from a couple based in Saskatoon, SK on Monday night. A mutual friend connected us. The weather could not have been more perfect for our SoleyContinue reading “Soley Cove – Where Red Sandstone Cliffs Contrast with an Azure Sky”
Touring my Friend’s Garden
It’s always a treat to tour Liz’s garden. The way she has her property divided into individual “rooms” is truly inspiring! Her lilies beckoned and demanded my attention! I hope you enjoyed this little garden tour from the outskirts of Parrsboro! Wishing everyone a fabulous weekend, Anna
Family Treasure Hunting Tour Recap
As “they” say: a picture is worth a thousand words. We spent a productive four hours looking for beach treasures along Wasson’s Bluff and Two Island beaches. We found sea glass, mermaid tears, moon snail shells, agate, quartz, smooth pebbles and colourful rocks! We shared snacks, watched hermit crabs, identified the gender of invasive greenContinue reading “Family Treasure Hunting Tour Recap”
Morning Mist
Time for a quiet and reflective moment thanks to another misty early morning! Enjoy, Anna
In the Footsteps of the Dinosaurs at Wasson’s Bluff & Two Islands
Gillespie House B&B guests tore themselves away from these gorgeous grounds to explore the geology along two well-known and popular beaches along the Parrsboro Shore. Four hours well spent looking for rocks, crabs, hermit crabs and watching the tide rise around Eagle Island! We had mist, fog and even some rain which meant the newContinue reading “In the Footsteps of the Dinosaurs at Wasson’s Bluff & Two Islands”
After the Rain
This rainbow appeared after a heavy rain several days ago. I captured it just in time before it began to fade. The view from our back deck, our own little paradise!!
Shrouded in Mist…
Another RDF (rain-drizzle-fog) kinda day! I won’t keep me from heading to Clarke Head… Hope the sun shines wherever you are! Have a fantastic day, Anna
Evening Beach Escape
The beach called tonight! After a hot day it felt great to feel the cooling breeze.
Last Minute Soley Cove Photo Tour
I just love when my schedule allows for a last minute tour booking, as happed this morning. The text from The Pleasant Street Inn arrived at 8:15 pm inquiring if I was free. I had a morning commitment and knew the tide wasn’t favourable to do an ocean floor tour till later in the day.Continue reading “Last Minute Soley Cove Photo Tour”
Exploring the Carboniferous Age Cliffs on a Hot July Day
I had cleared all commitments from my calendar, met my deadlines and with a day at my disposal decided to tackle a hike on my bucket list, East Bay to West Bay starting near Partridge Island. My starting time was 2.5 hours after high tide which ensured that any possible punch point would be clear.Continue reading “Exploring the Carboniferous Age Cliffs on a Hot July Day”
Fundy Shore Tranquility
Eagle and Gull Islands Revisited
Eagle and Gull Islands are better known as Two Islands along the Parrsboro Shore. I finally found time to revisit this elusive destination. So close and yet the access is somewhat limited. You will meet locals who encourage others to cross the shallow waters anytime. Based on personal experience and the many rescue stories thatContinue reading “Eagle and Gull Islands Revisited”
Misty Morning Beach Hike to Clarke Head
The mist didn’t deter visitors to Parrsboro from a post breakfast guided tour. “I’m happy!” and “We would have never explored this beach on our own!” were just two of the enthusiastic comments I overheard while walking below the 200 Million year old cliffs. Springer spaniel Angie was in her element: in and out ofContinue reading “Misty Morning Beach Hike to Clarke Head”
Peony Love
Just before the “big rain” arrived this week I got out to capture some contemplative images of the peonies in the front garden bed. My timing was excellent as the blossoms were flattened by the deluge. Enjoy the images… imagine the scent! Happy Thursday, Anna
