Learning about our own part of the earth can help us get a better understanding of the world at large. Much of the information now available about our province is aimed at young readers and people with at least a high school education. The Hitch-Hiker is intended to provide information which beginning adult readers can read and understand. This work has a special feature we hope readers will appreciate and enjoy. Many of the places written about in this book are seen through the eyes of an adult learner and other fictional characters. These characters were created to help add a touch of reality to the printed page. We hope the characters and the things they learn and talk about also give the reader a better understanding of our province. Above all, we hope this book challenges your curiosity and encourages you to search for more information about our land.

Owing to the species'nocturnal nestingcolony of and burrow-nestinghabits, the breed- ing populations and distributions of storm-petrels, first documented in Leach's Storm-Petrels Newfoundlandby Petersand Burleigh (1951), have historicallybeen grossly underestimatedand are not presently on BaccalieuIsland,, well known. Storm-petrel coloniesin Newfoundland are vastly larger than all others in the Northwest Atlantic Newfoundland (Huntington 1963; Montevecchi, in prep.), but few quantitative data on colony populationshave been gener- ated.

Montevecchi land, hasgone largely unrecognized as an important nestingsite for the spe- des (Brown et al. 1975; Nettleship 1980). In the present paper, we esti- mate the breeding population of storm-petrelsbased on measurements of burrow densitiesin all nestinghab- itats and on quantitative estimatesof the island'ssurface areas. Our popu- lation figure, which is compared with thoseof other coloniesthroughout the world, yields new perspectivesof the energy consumption of these birds in the marine ecosystemof the North- west Atlantic.

  • Igor's Environmental Mandates
    Igor’s environmental mandates Birds I View Bill Montevecchi Juliana Coffey and an injured short-eared owl that was sent to Salmonier Nature Park for rehabilitation. (photo: Gioia Montevecchi) The power and fury of Hurricane Igor provided firsthand experience of our vulnerability to natural environmental events. The force and the damage wreaked by such a once-in-a-century event are shocking and depending on circumstance can be terrifying and life-threatening. Increases in extreme weather events predicted by climate change models, so we have to be prepared and plan for environmental surprises. Much of the damage imposed by the hurricane was historically unprecedented and unavoidable. Yet much of havoc and destruction can be attributed to failures of environmental accommodation. Giving Mother Nature her due Many if not most of the roadway blowouts that isolated communities was associated with inadequate water passage. Small pipeline culverts, the civil engineering choice of the day, often do provide adequate water flow for rivers, streams and wetland connections that are severed by road construction. The environmental inadequacies of roadway engineering are so obvious around the province. An extreme environmental event like Igor shows the inadequacy engineering practices. Pipeline culverts often sit above extant water levels and prevent the free flow of water. They frequently provide barriers to the movements of fishes. This has been the case in some of the province’s best trout and Atlantic salmon rivers. Pipeline culverts need phasing out and replacement with large inverted U-shaped water passage- ways and where necessary with bridges. These structures permit better water flow and also leave natural stream and river beds intact.

  • Birds I View
    Old trails and new studies on Baccalieu Island Birds I View Bill Montevecchi The seabird cliffs of Baccalieu. (photo: Bill Montevecchi) This year was the first time that I had the opportunity to work on Baccalieu Island since 2002. That was the year the light-keepers were terminated. Without their assistance, it’s not been safe to land by boat at the light station on the southern tip of the island. With helicopter support provided by the Newfoundland and Labrador Parks and Natural Areas Division of the Department of Environment and Conservation, Stefan Garthe from the University of Kiel in Germany, Holly Hogan, the Reserve Manager and I visited the island during mid- to late August. Many changes Things have changed. The open door to the light-keepers’ house was the first we encountered. The peeling paint was waving in the entry way like a field of ferns. A leak in the roof had damaged the kitchen ceiling and a mouldy smell greeted our nostrils. Yet all was completely intact as the light-keepers had so fastidiously left things. There was a TV (but no electricity), stove, dining room table, chairs, sofa, new beds, dressers, pots, pans, cutlery, etc. and clean fresh water in the cistern below the house. With a bit of cleaning and lot of open airing, things soon felt like the good old days with the exception of the keepers. On the island, many other changes were much more discomforting. The trails that the light- keepers had used and kept open for walking between the two light stations at the south and north ends of the Island, for berry-picking and cutting boat ribs and planks from the forests were not the same.
