**Moncton’s Tidal Bore is
a significant attraction in Moncton for tourists and residents.
Georges Brun provides a
printout of the Tidal Bore time schedule for 2026 with the amplitude of the
bore each day and with a numerical figure beside it as to relative height.
Relative height is a bore
size indicator where # 1 is the smallest and # 4 is the largest. This set of
figures will be helpful for many to print or set aside as a document to know
what to expect when we want to drop down to see it ourselves or show visitors.
The complete 2026 guide is
available at the link below:
**Odell Park is a very
popular intercity birding spot in Fredericton, where many people drop by to
enjoy the trails through the old forest habitat. It is a destination for those who appreciate wildlife, whether a resident or a visitor to the area.
Wendy Rogers dropped by
recently and commented that it was such a treat to see pileated woodpeckers
twice and to have one close enough to photograph. The park was quiet that day
except for blue jays and black-capped chickadees, but the two pileated
woodpeckers were a consolation prize.
