<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hi All</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Last evening on the river doing a little fishing, a Short-eared Owl</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">started barking in a grove of pine trees beside the water.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">At first it sounds like a little dog but when you listen closely</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">it is different. Hard to describe but not many dogs bark 15</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">meters up a pine tree.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">A Great Blue Heron came in for a landing. It wanted where I was standing.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Very impressive a Heron coming towards you with all the brakes on.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">When  it got 10 m or so away it decided another spot 20 m away would</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">do as well and turned just in time.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">A flock of ducks went over very high followed by 2 geese half the height -</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">they were having a good chat. Sounds nice against the background of running</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">water. </span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">There is a lot of flowers beside the stream just now. Asters, Pipewort</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Boneset, Turtleheads and a nice bed of Ladies'- tresses. The Pickerel Weed</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">is finished for this year and is producing seeds. It would be</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">hard to grow such a nice garden.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">This years models of Gaspereau seem to have exited the river. None</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">were visible at any rate. They have a season.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Enjoy the last of summer </span>
