Atlas Park Today

Paul and I enjoyed a lovely fall day by taking a walk in Atlas Park at Pointe-Verte.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lighthouse Point, Louisburg, Nova Scotia

While we were visiting Louisburg National Historic Site in Nova Scotia, we discovered Lighthouse Point in the town of Louisburg.  This area is wide open to the ocean and has a very nice walking trail.  The morning we were there the fog was rolling in, and out, and in, so we had the pleasure of hearing the "fog horn" wailing!

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

The Lighthouse Point walking trail follows along the ocean, with awesome views.  

 

 

 

We took the time to enjoy all that was offered.

 

 

There was a bucket of walking sticks located at the beginning of the trail, which you could "borrow" to use on your walk.

 

 

 

 

 

If you are a nature lover, this is a wonderful place to experience.

 

 

We plan to return one day...

 

 

 

 

 



A Great Afternoon of Enjoying Nature

 

After going out for breakfast and running a couple of errands today, Paul and I decided to take a walk on what we refer to as, our bird route.  This route is off the beach and we often spot the occasional bird along the way.


This is my favourite house along our walk.  I love the big trees.

Today we saw this turtle on the waterway

A Woodpecker

 

A cute Bumblebee lawn ornament

 

A Northern Mockingbird

 

I found this plant very pretty and have not seen it before.

 

Now, two turtles sunning on the log

After we enjoyed the walk on our bird route, we decided to head for the beach to see if any treasures had washed up with the high tide.

The dune fence buried by the sand.  A great surf.

 

We enjoyed some time soaking up the sun on our beach steps,
while watching the waves roll in

 

We love watching the pelicans on the surf

Another great day of enjoying all that surrounds us.
