Laura and I hoofed it up to the barrens of Chebucto Head this evening to =
follow-up on our recent pelagic bird sighting but no joy was had on that =
endeavor. However, the mid to late summer plants of the coastal barren =
are beginning to appear, quite early as expected; Arctic Blueberry, =
Golden Heather(just starting to open), Green Adder's Mouth Orchid and =
Slender Lady's Tresse's Orchid.

One of the reasons this area is a protected nature preserve is because =
of the plants. No wonder!
