Well to my surprise, I hadnt been to the North West Arm, in along time until recently, and had been having my morning coffee.

And couldnt help myself but notice, a man there sitting In a blue-four door vehicle. Please let me tell you about this man, In the blue vehicle!

After, observing this man for over an hour, out comes his camera and a coffee and off he goes, to the end roughly of the Arm, and sits there and watches,and watches, and then off he will go, this man I had never seen this in my entire life, but this amazed me so much I had to just write about this.

This man roughly in his 40`s will get up camera in hand start making some sort of a call ,I think I overheard at least two, or three, but two forsure.

Anyway, when he does these sounds bald eagles show up along with ospreys! Moreover, this man ,will actually talk with these birds, back and forth with them all the while snapping away.

This is just a site I thought I would never fantom seeing in my life.

In addition, the way this man does this, is just amazing!

People, if you want to see a show, please drop by and see this man, actually do this.

Just yesterday, I thought I would go, and see if this same man was there, and yes he was, and this time he started setting up a few of those inflatable boats, and off he went !

Seeing I had a pair of binocolurs I started watching this man, (hope he didnt mind but he is such an interesting man).

Anyway, off he goes, like I was saying and into the ocean he goes, now the best part was he went over to the other side where the sailboats are parked for the summer fun.

And he goes to a certain place, and away he goes with these sounds, and out come two bald eagles (wow) and he just starts talking to them and they come in the tree`s and start talking back to this man? Unbelieveable, to me but hey! This person is something to see Halifax.

I will be heading there more often now, and the next time forsure I`am going to speak with this man.

One last thing here, if you are in the area, I will add a link to this post with the instructions as to where you can find this man.

This park is called the horseshoe island park and this is the link to it using google maps.

And if you get a chance, please go down there and have a look for yourself, seeing is believing.

This man will leave you wondering, and seeing how much this man values and loves, our wildlife we currently have in our beautiful province Nova Scotia. I had spoken with another man, who had showed up, awhile after I was there, and had asked him If he had ever noticed this man doing this, or had ever watched him?.

He had said, this was the only reason he comes there Is to really watch this man, and this man Is so involved and so loves bald eagles and the osprey,that he might not even notice you ,when he does these sounds that do attract these birds!. In addition, here I had thought I was alone!

And was also told this man, can be seen there most days, and evenings!

Thank you Sir for showing me how human beings can relate to the wildlife of our world. —Ted

To all the beautiful people I met while running at the Maritime Race Weekend, thank you for making the experience what it should be - a great memory to recollect and a lot of fun. Also, thank you volunteers and people who came out to watch and show their support. —Sudorific is terrific!

Group of ladies that attended karaoke at Bearly's. One of your group sang Doo Wop(That Thing) by Lauren Hill and absolutely KILLED IT. Great job, certainly cheered up one patron. Would've said Hi or bought you a drink but you were mobbed by some of the finest mullets in town. Seen you outside for a second but you were leaving :( —Not About That Thing

Thank you to those who post classified ads and are willing to bring things to me that are too big and heavy for me to bring home on the bus. You're the exception to the rule. Third-party delivery fees can really add up. —Stuck with the bus for now

To the cute guy/girl/dog who smiled at me/said 'hi'/acknowledged my existence... I'm really glad I spent an hour getting ready this morning and clearly it paid off! I saw you hanging around downtown on a sunny day, you have brown hair and you were wearing blue jeans. I think our eyes might have met for the briefest of moments. If anybody whatsoever responds to this post I will most likely sleep with them. —Happy, Enjoying Life, Perusing

To the cute girl with the slightly buzzed hair: I used to see you on the 20 Herring cove everyday, you smiling bright every time you see me. Didn't see you for a while until Wed night, smiling as always. You have no idea how much your smile brightens my shitty, hung over, hate my job mornings. If I ever see you again, please talk to me; I think your prettier then anything. —Stewed, screwed and tattooed

We had packed all the groceries into our back packs and both our debit cards had been declined. We were wondering what to do when you, green broccoli shirt wearing guy, stepped in and offered to buy our groceries for us. We were shocked and amazed and didn't know what to say. You said, "Just do the same for someone else sometime." Thank you for your spontaneous generosity. May we all be so daring. And thanks to the woman in line who encouraged us to accept and said, "Just write to the Coast about it." —Grateful gals will pay it forward

One night , the planets aligned, both of us single and out on the town. we knew each other but we were both in relationships until that night downtown, you said you had seen me first which I begged to differ with you , it felt so magical kind of like out of a movie, I took you home, along with my best friend , we had a tiny fling , however I wished it had of been just us , you ended up having sex with her as I didn't want to do it with her, you then dated her for a couple of weeks , I felt you really wanted me ,maybe us both, but I wasn't so sure , i know she was jealous of our friendship and of some things you said to me in conversation, I wish now I had done more with you , I wish I could have made love to you like the lover you want even just for one night. i saw you at a party recently , it was so good to see you, write me if you are single again sometime in the future, don't be afraid to txt me if you know that this is you even if you don't/didn't feel the same way or if you just find this funny —both in relationships

To the lady who seen my cat, who has been missing for a month now, get hit by a car that took off. Thank you for holding her as she passed and showing her love for the last time. I'm sorry you had to be the one to do that, and I wish I had of found her and that none of this had to happen. But thank you for bringing her to the vet, because of your actions, I got to see my baby one last time, say good bye to her, and know in my heart she felt love in her last moment. I can't express my appreciation, and I wish I could thank you personally. And thank you to the vets who took the time to call me, and console me, and letting me know of this wonderful lady who did this for her. My heart is heavy, and I am devastated, but I feel just a little bit better knowing she wasn't alone when she passed. —Wishing my reunion with my missing cat was on more fortunate circumstances

To the window washer working twelve stories up and whistling the theme from the Spiderman TV show: thanks! You were a terrific brightness on a grey foggy day. Plus you did a great job. —Pro arachnid
