Beachcombing cleanup yesterday in Witless Bay, NL. Big thanks to Ralph Carey ( Town Councillor) for stopping by, chatting and offering thanks for my efforts. Ralph also came back in his truck and took care of the 3 vehicle tires I pulled from the beach. Very kind of you sir.
This area of our Province is extra precious as it very close to The Witless Bay Ecological Reserve that holds over 250,000 pairs of Atlantic Puffins.
Stay safe everyone and enjoy the great outdoors.
This is the bucket I pulled off a beach in Witless Bay, NL this week while on a cleanup. It was washed ashore with the recent storms most likely, as it looked withered. After looking inside I realized it contained used motor oil so I poured it out into an empty 4 litre jug and it almost filled it up.
Witless Bay Ecological Reserve has the biggest Atlantic Puffin Colony in North America. Over 500,000 of them.
Plus thousands of storm petrels, kittiwakes and common murres.
This oil will go back to the used oil recycling program where it will not cause harm to the environment. Stay safe
Witless bay and Bay Bulls, NL beachcombing cleanup from this week. More recyclable items, trash and a few treasures as well. Stay safe and enjoy the great outdoors:)
A trip to Witless Bay, NL beach combing today to cleanup some shoreline and to hide a few small sea glass filled bottles on the beaches I cleaned up . Thanks going out once again to Lisa Ten Broek for your support on this one. Goodluck to all in searching for the treasures I left behind and stay safe
The things that can be found on a beach in NL! A few backpack beachcombing cleanups over the last couple of weeks in Witless Bay, St. Philips and Conception Bay South, NL. A few more kilometres of shoreline here on the Northeast Avalon that is much healthier. Stay safe
Yesterday I combined my passion for beachcombing and pond cleanups together and set out on an early morning adventure. First I hit up a couple beaches in Bay Bulls and Witless Bay and then travelled back to the TCH and jumped into Gull pond on Foxtrap Access Road. Big thanks to Rosie Frey for the lovely card and surprise gas card inside. Your kindness helped me make a couple areas of our home healthier and cleaner for all to enjoy. Stay safe everyone.
Here are my results from two days of beachcombing here on the Avalon in NL. Witless Bay, Mobile and Conception Bay areas. Some very interesting items for sure. One cleanup at a time our beautiful province gets healthier. Leave nothing only footprints if you’re out in the great outdoors.
A shout out to GNC Live Well at the Avalon Mall for your support and kindness in offering up your Aluminum pull tabs for Tyler and your beverage recycling. Thanks so much. Stay safe everyone:)
Over the last two days I have been busy backpack beachcombing in Conception Bay, Witless Bay and Mobile here on the Avalon in NL. I cleaned up quite a bit of plastic and metals from our beautiful shorelines and Pics will follow soon of my findings. Stay safe and pack out, what you pack in.
