In fact, they are there.
I know of at least one bog just off the Shearwater Flyer trail - that's
the section that runs between Bissett Road in Cole Harbour and Caldwell
Road. That bog is off to the left (south, in fact) of the trail as you
head west from Bissett Road to Caldwell Road. There's a barely visible
path leading it to it.
As for Nancy Roberts' email that came in as I was writing mine, I
haven't yet seen the one she tells about.
