A recent article by Nick Hill, "Slow down the water" talks about some  
of the  benefits of the Kentville Ravine

Quoting David & Alison Webster <dwebster@glinx.com>:

> Dear All,                                    Apr 22, 2013
> As you may have heard, possible developments near Highway 101 Exit
> 12 could threaten the Kentville Ravine so defensive measures are  
> being organized.
>    This Ravine is a park-like natural area, open to the public and  
> is located immediately east of the Kentville Agricultural Research  
> Station fields.
>    One component of this defense is compilation of a biodiversity  
> list. The vascular plant list is reasonably complete as are the  
> lists for fleshy fungi and birds, other vertebrates perhaps  
> incomplete, other fungi (?), Cryptogams about 2/3 incomplete,  
> Myxomycetes none (?), Lichens none (?), Algae & Diatoms none (?),  
> arthropods about 99% incomplete and other invertebrates none (?).
>    If passing through, remember to keep this park in mind, either  
> for a visit or to help add to the lists by vouchers (which you would  
> retain), digital images or confirmed ID as applicable.
> Yt, Dave Webster Kentville
