Scallop boats await the tides

Another soothing winter sight in Bay of Fundy:

Hi Terri, Trust you are having a good winter! Here's a photo of scallop boats awaiting high tide so they can dock at Alma wharf (New Brunswick). The ice cakes come and go with the rise and fall of our giant Bay of Fundy tides, posing a danger in the navigation routes of the vessels. The low western sun is highlighting the cliffs on the opposite Nova Scotia shore. ~ Donna

And even better: this is Donna's everyday view from her inn: Falcon Ridge Inn, Alma, New Brunswick. Her guests must be very happy to wake up to this view any time of the year!
