Someone wasn't paying attention. Still don't know exactly where the land is, but land was proposed for protection in that area, and it would be good news. From: naturens-owner@chebucto.ns.ca [mailto:naturens-owner@chebucto.ns.ca] On Behalf Of Patrick Kelly Sent: September 27, 2016 11:36 PM To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca Subject: Re: [NatureNS] Grizzly Bear and Cerulean Warbler protection in NS- Chronicle Herald Actually, the article did distinguish between what was being protected in Nova Scotia as well as what the NCC was protecting across Canada. The article says: "The two projects announced in Nova Scotia, out of the 25 projects nationally, will protect 150 hectares of old-growth forest near Long Tusket Lake, Yarmouth County and 166 hectares along the Northumberland Strait near Pugwash. The latter includes a large number of rare cedars. "Both of these mature forests provide valuable wildlife habitat," said Craig Smith, program director for the Nature Conservancy of Canada in Nova Scotia. NCC said the Canadian projects will protect 50 kilometres of rivers and streams and provide habitat for 63 species at risk including grizzly bear, cerulean warbler, spring salamander, limber pine and Kentucky coffee tree." The final line quoted refers to the 25 projects nationally that were mentioned in the first sentence of the excerpt. I don't see any literacy problems in reading it....

It may well be that all the species listed are protected in various habitats in various regions, by the Nature Conservancy, and are on the Canadian "species at risk" list. I suspect someone at the paper skimmed the news release, mixed a flabby knowledge of NS wildlife with poor writing skills and manifested this blooper of an article. I do note that the Cerulean Warbler may be the only one on the list to apply (Spring Salamander, anyone?). If there were Ceruleans recorded in any forest in Nova Scotia, the site needs to be protected! They are a very rare songbird for our region, and a species assessed as vulnerable.

What a joke but it must be true as it is in print!! Pretty severe error! Nice to see Nature Conservancy of Canada continue to protect land though.
