A day later, blue eyed no more.

While pulling out wood for a beach access deck project, I found this little fellow.

A Blue Eyed Snake? From what I have been able to find out, the blue eyes may be an indication that it is about to moult.

I spent the weekend in Fundy Nation Park with friends and took in the Whitetail, Forks and Upper Salmon River Trails.

Spent the evenings in Alma at the Holy Whale Brewery [Champ APA!], The Octopus’s Garden Cafe & Bistro [Lobster Risotto!] and the Muddy Rudder Bar & Grill.

This Little Brown Bat found it’s way into my home two night’s ago. I tried to get it to fly out through the open patio door a couple times to no avail. It would just swoop back and forth. Last night I left the patio door partially open when I went to bed. Soon, the inevitable mosquitoes made themselves know, then I heard the bat scrabbling at the opening. I got up and in the moonlight saw it at the floor of the opening. It then seemed to fly out, so I closed the door & screen. This morning when I opened the curtains, I discovered it clinging to the inside of the screen door. I popped the screen off and took it into the woods.

After a few minutes it fluttered off into the trees.

Another local is building a home in a nearby cove, taking advantage of existing infrastructure.

North American beaver (Castor canadensis) @ wikipedia

Sometime between 14:00 and 19:30 today, the butterfly extricated itself.
