Mahone Bay in various years.

> Out on the Bay yesterday, still lots of Mackerel and Pollock at the =
entrance to the bay as well as some nice cod. Interesting to see =
formations of bait fish jumping on the surface to escape large feeding =
Mackerel. Not sure what they were, perhaps small Gaspereau, but they =
could make repeated jumps of about  2 feet.
> There were no Gannets up in the bay and only a couple of adults =
passing at the entrance.
