Index of Subjects 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!!!!

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.

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!

Friends would like to know exactly where it is beached and if it is easily accessible. It is thought to be a Right Whale. Angus
