We may have the best fed birds in Pleasantville. They are always close by waiting with much anticipation for the sound of the door, then word quickly spreads and it begins ….

A little bit of July in November ...
The calendar says November, but it feels more like July …
On this absolutely beautiful day, with very warm temperatures,
slight wind and bright blue sky, I was out for a glorious wander on Rissers
Beach. The conditions were so perfect there was a bunch of young kids swimming
and enjoying the waves ~ no photos of them …!!!

Too foggy for takeoff ….
I am sure I have mentioned in previous blogs, that any day, in any weather is great for a visit to the beach and the islands, but not always for the local seagulls.
Today with warm temperatures and what could have been the
lowest tide I have seen at 0.19m, the fog was so thick the seagulls were
grounded and seemed to be more than a little anxious about it.
In complete contrast, after my wander with the beach still
in thick fog, I was amazed upon my return along the LaHave River to
Pleasantville, that it was in bright sunshine.

Horizontal and featureless ...
With an extremely low morning tide, complete calm and windless conditions, I enjoyed a double beach wander on Crescent and Rissers Breaches.
The placid appearance of the water was only broken with the
occasional lethargic wave, blending almost perfectly at the junction of the sky,
with its elongated outstretched clouds, giving what struck me as a horizontal and featureless
panorama …

Down the other side of the river and beyond …
With an early bright morning, I figured that it would be a bright sunny warm day. So, with that I took a beautiful drive along the other side of the LaHave River to Lunenburg and then onto Mahone Bay, with stops along the way at Corkums and Hermans Islands.
One end of
the Lunenburg waterfront was a little noisier than usual with much clattering
and banging, as crewmembers of The Picton Castle were getting her ready for the upcoming
around the world sail. While at the other end, workers were working on Bluenose
II getting her ready for winter storage.
