Great shots of this Blue Jay, taken in Souris by Wanda Bailey. "The Blue Jay frequently mimics the calls of hawks, especially the Red-shouldered Hawk. These calls may provide information to other jays that a hawk is around." https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Blue_Jay/overview

"The progress of Atlantic salmon smolts from their home rivers, some from our management area in northeast Prince Edward Island, as they make their way across the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the Strait of Belle Isle and beyond, into the Labrador Sea. This shows the correlation between that movement and increasing temperatures of ocean water as Spring progresses." https://www.asf.ca/news-and-magaz//on-the-briny-ocean-toss courtesy of Atlantic Salmon Federation.

It is now in an outdoor enclosure ...and we are monitoring closely if can use it's injured wing for flight. It is much stronger, eats very well and has gained almost 1.5 kg.

Thanks to funding from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada for supporting this incredible initiative over the years! "'What we're trying to do is we create artificial Irish moss and blue mussel clumps and then we plant them throughout the arm in order to try to grow the population,' says Madelyn Stewart, project lead with the Souris and Area Branch of the P.E.I. Wildlife Federation." https://www.cbc.ca//pei-basin-head-irish-moss-planting-1.5"
