Off The Beaten Path: White-Tailed Deer

  • New Brunswick has an abundance of wildlife. One of the advantages of a canoe is that you can paddle quietly along and, very often, surprise wildlife that would otherwise hear you coming for miles if you were crashing through the underbrush! In this case, we came across a White-tailed Deer feeding at the edge of the water. This is no great discovery because I actually get them in my back yard all winter long as they come out of the forest searching for easier pickings. They will often come up to my bird-feeder and beat it about as they nibble on the seeds!

    Off The Beaten Path: Something Different
  • Tip Rating:
  • Although Common Loons are a fixture on the lakes of New Brunswick, it is much more difficult to see a Red-Necked Grebe. These birds (18 inches long) are about half the size of a loon and they are usually found in lakes and ponds searching for small fish, crustaceans, tadpoles and insects. They spend their winters in the southern USA. We saw this bird while we were leaving our first campsite on the beach. When hiking or canoeing, I never leave home without my birdbook and binoculars because you never know when you will come across something interesting!

    Off The Beaten Path: A Riverside Farm
  • Tip Rating:
  • As I drove on, I left the Saint John River and headed overland along one of its tributaries called Washadamoek Lake (into which the Canaan River flows), not far from the small village of Codys. I get great enjoyment out of seeing some of the older farmsteads with their very 'lived-in' appearance. This one had a great location beside the water of the Lake. It was not far from here that I spotted a Bald Eagle cruising the skies for a possible afternoon fish snack!

     I love camping in the North Woods. When I was a kid, we camped in similar places in Maine, and also heard the eerie calls of the loon. Gotta love the name Gut-A-Moose Lodge!

     Sounds like a great wilderness experience! I'd love a small island to myself. :)

     What a beautiful and tranquil place for canoeing! Interesting to hear what the ice makes with granite bolders.

     Fried onions and pork chops? Man, I guess THAT did taste good. Now, all we get is dried food to safe weight! lol Great page, I wish I could have washed it down with an ice cold Moosehead!
