--Boundary_(ID_c4m6CYmDofA8+hJYRVlxOA) Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT JUNE 23, 2009 - Today by chance I met Heather Brown, who on June 19/09 had encountered a large WOOD TURTLE on Wolfville Ridge Road, near the western end where another road curves downward toward Horton High School. I think she said it was just east of the clearing with the nice view of Port Williams etc. When she approached the turtle on foot, it quickly left the road and walked into the woods, she said. Unfortunately she did not have a camera with her. She said she reported it by e-mail to the N.S. Dept. of Nat. Resources via contact info' on the attractive poster, "Have you seen this turtle?", which she saw somewhere; and I told her she had done just the right thing. Heather's phone number is 542-5514 and her e- mail address is brownheather2002@yahoo.ca ? Then I told her a bit about the natural distribution of wood turtles in the province, and that not very long ago one was found by Roy Bishop at Grand Pre and then was taken to Guysborough County and relocated into a natural population along the St. Mary's River, I believe? I think the closest natural population to King's County would be along the Annapolis River near Kingston/Middleton? John Belbin knows some of that area well and where the turtles can be encountered.
