I'm afraid I'm going to have to take Jim to task on this one - The NS 
Government  Surveys and Mapping Division recognizes the name "Phinneys 
Cove", without the apostrophe!!!!

Thanks, John.  Today's Herald front section has two short articles on
whales: this dead 11-m., 40-tonne, female humpback that came to shore at
Phinney's Cove, nw. of Bridgetown -- Conway said there were no external
marks to indicate ship collision or entanglement, and a living beached small
pilot whale that was apparently rescued (pushed into deeper water) at
Tancook Island.

Cheers from Jim

I bumped into Mark Dittrick (Conservation Chair, Atlantic Canada Chapter,
Sierra Club of Canada - involved in Right Whale Beacon Project) this
afternoon in Annapolis. He has been down to the stranding site. Apparently
it is a humpback. It is located in Phinney Cove. There is a trail near the
Baptist Church. Bridgetown was merely the nearest identifiable big "city".
When I first heard it was at "Bridgetown" I thought - Oh no, Sluice is back!

Has anyone further information on the beached whale which was reported on
radio this a.m. It said the whale was at Bridgetown which is of course not
possible. Friends would like to know exactly where it is beached and if it
is easily accessible. It is thought to be a Right Whale.
