Salt Marsh Trail

On Tuesday morning it was cloudy but quite warm so we decided to hike the Salt Marsh Trail.  It is a 6.5 k trail along an old railway bed and at one time connected Cole Harbour and Dartmouth.  Joan and I went for
2 k and then decided to turn back.  Bob and Earl went on for a while before turning back.  It is  supposedly a bird sanctuary, but most of the birds we saw were gulls and ducks.  Bob saw a few others - a blue Heron and some sandpipers.

There were a few flowers in bloom along the trail.  There were also warnings about poison ivy.

We kept thinking there was some kind of bird on the rock but I guess it was a piece of wood.
