Sept 30 2015

**We often see GREAT BLUE HERONS perched in trees but not often at the summit of power poles. Jim Johnson caught a nice silhouette of a GREAT BLUE HERON using that as a vantage point in Scotch Settlement on Tuesday. 
 
**Susan Richards shares photo observations. One is of a view from the summit of Mount Carleton earlier in the week, a COMMON EIDER capturing what appears to be a crab, a GRAY SEAL head popped above water and a PITCHER plant. The later 3 photos were from Miscou. Susan also shows the extremely high level of water at high tide on the Memramcook River on Monday. 
 
**Aldo Dorio again got a photo of a fairly fresh appearing AMERICAN LADY BUTTERFLY on Tuesday as well as a GRAY JAY. 
 
**The GREAT EGRET that has been seen around the Pointe du Chene area continues to be present. Elaine Gallant saw it in the middle of a small waterway between the bluff and Cap Brûlé on Tuesday evening. The Waterside and Louis St., Dieppe birds were reported on recently so there is a possibility of 3 known GREAT EGRETS are in the area at the moment.
