Gulls, Not Shags

With our view of Shag Rock and the shag birds that make it home, we had an obvious namesake for the Shag It Cafe and Gift Shop. But we get lots of seabirds coming to our shores – that’s why we’ve named 4 of our cottages after the Loon, the Puffin, the Gannet and the Osprey. But clearly, I think flock of seagulls at our beach is trying to tell us something! Of course we see sea gulls around, too, but I hadn’t seen them here before. Maybe they came by for some of our fantastic coffee and gluten-free baked treats!

Budding Saturday: Traffic Lights

It’s Saturday, ie Newfoundland Photography Day on the Blog. Like the most beautiful pictures here usually are, these were taken by Bud Vincent.

Like Bud says, “’tis is a funny thing that human beings have great difficulty maneuvering around their vehicles unless there are traffic lights. And, most times a number of drivers simply ignore them anyway.

Point is: Seagulls don’t need traffic lights and as you can see, they certainly have much greater obstacles in their way, all at the one time.”
