HI Jim,

 If anyone finds it again, Id be happy to look at it. Quite unusual to find
them out of the water so I suspect it was debilitated

  Subject: [NatureNS] spring azure butterfly, sick? gannet, beached seal


  JUNE 27, 2009 - At home in Wolfville Pat and I had excellent looks at a
very cooperative SMALL BLUE BUTTERFLY that seemed to be somewhere in the
SPRING AZURE complex; it was not either of our two species of BLUES.


  JUNE 28, 2009 - Liz and Agar Adamsom at Blue Rocks received from some
friends an apparently debilitated adult NORTHERN GANNET that was found
somewhere along the shore. They called the Dept. of Natural Resources about
it, and then tried to release the bird at the edge of the water. It swam out
and could even open its wings and fly for a few metres, but then couldn't
seem to stay airborne. Anyway, the bird is out of their hands now, and might
turn up again somewhere else along the shore. They didn't mention seeing any
spots of oil on the plumage, but I didn't ask them about that.


  Also they report a LIVING SEAL beached near their home at Blue Rocks. I
asked Agar to take a photo of the seal, which died the next day. He said it
is about 5 feet long and whitish or light gray? in colour.


  Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
