Stewards’ reports S
tewards and staff alike have had a busy year with stewardship of all existing and newly acquired nature preserves. Although some of our preserves are facing new challenges with motorized vehicle use, we are also proud to see some of our most cherished preserves flourishing, and our newly acquired properties being warmly welcomed. Jessica Orlofske and Chris Tyrell have taken over stewardship of our Arthur Kyle Nature Preserve. Along with the regular tasks of stewardship they have volunteered to develop an outreach project for the Cobblestone Tiger Beetle, a Species-atRisk which inhabit the Island. After multiple visits to the Island, they have reported loss of some trees due to significant ice damage. T he Tow n of Woodstock has re-signed a five year Conservation Agreement for the Beardsley Hill Nature Preserve with the Nature Trust. Steward George Peabody has reported no changes on the preserve over the past year. In June, intern Jessica McKeil visited Beldings Reef Nature Preserve to cut back a small portion of the trail and place a hiking sign at its head. David Norman, our steward who frequently visits the preserve, reported that the property is rarely used by visitors. The Nature Trust is proud to announce the Blueberry Hill Nature Preserve to our members as one of our newest conservation areas. The local community and the Friends of Blueberry Hill have moved to their new position of becoming stewards. They held numerous events and fundraisers to raise stewardship funds, and to fund the removal of culverts from Henderson Brook. Special thanks to the community members, funders, and Ducks Unlimited Canada for their help with this complex project. Boars Head Nature Preserve is now stewarded by Anne Bardou and David Clark and they are working on a bird and plant survey for the management plan which is in development. Ben and Renata Woodward have begun laying out and clearing a trail system on the preserve which takes visitors down to the scenic shoreline of the Saint John River. Special thanks to Rothesay Netherwood School for spending a day on the Preserve clearing trails. Jessica McKeil with the group of Forestry students visited Cape Enrage Nature Preserve, installed an interpretive sign on the cobblestone beach, which is a very popular destination for tourists during the summer months, and cleaned up the beach of washed up debris. The Caughey-Taylor Nature Preserve has seen a lot of changes this year; it has nearly doubled in size thanks to the completion of the Campaign for Coastal Lands. There have been new signs installed along the highway and a new trail around Taggarts Marsh is in development. A nnual R eport
Stewards Wayne and Susan Eddy have reported many visitors this year and participated in the Charlotte Isles clean-up which took place on this preserve. Many thanks go out to Cooke Aquaculture for their assistance with the excessive garbage removal. The current land use of Clark Gregory/Chocolate Cove is for wildlife preservation and recreational activities. Steward Betsy Dunken reported that there are some dangerous trees present on this property and visitors are cautioned to proceed at their own risk. Dick’s Island does not seem to be frequently used by humans. The number of cormorant nests was considerably lower this year. Steward Alison Hughes recommended having a scientific observer to visit the Island in the near future. Stewards Cecilia Brooks and Jamie Idol visited the George M. Stirrett Nature Preserve in June to survey for the absence or presence of the Furbish’s Lousewort. They reported two rough clusters, one with a dozen and the other with around fifty of these threatened plants. Mike Dillon, Trustee, has finished our management plan for this preserve. The Nature Trust would like to thank the Parish of Sackville for their hard work towards the establishment of the Grindstone Island Conservation Easement. This newest Nature Preserve is focused on protecting another Peregrine falcon site. The Trust, along with the Parish, will be working towards stewardship and environmental education programs in the near future. This year has been eventful for Hyla Park Nature Preserve in Fredericton with a number of Frog Walks. Don Vail, steward, and Greg Jongsma, volunteer, have been keeping busy with all of the interest in this preserve and its wetland creatures. Special thanks go to our volunteer Dr. Warren Coleman, who wrote the management plan for this property. Flooding on James C. Yerxa Preserve was less drastic in comparison to previous years reported by stewards Sam and Tom Beckley. In addition, signs of raccoons were observed. Minister’s Face and Rayworth Beach Nature Preserves on Long Island were visited by the Rothesay Netherwood School Environmental Club and the Children’s Wish Foundation members. The Environmental Club has cleared trails on Minister’s Face, while the Children’s Foundation members cleaned Rayworth Beach after substantial vandalism occurred on it this summer. Steward Morton Linton and intern Jessica McKeil inspected the MacNichol/Orser Conservation Easement and Clark’s Point Nature Preserve. It was noticed that the Kings Brook Lake is slowly transforming into an extensive wetland habitat. Walter Emrich has come onboard this year as Manawagonish Island Nature Preserve’s new steward. He has been compiling a bird and botanical survey and observed that nearly all of our platforms are being used by nesting birds including five or six pairs of nesting Great-Blue herons. Renata and Ben Woodward visited the Meredith Houseworth Memorial Seashore this spring and collected many bags of garbage. They also inspected the neighboring conservation easement.

Stewards’ reports
New River Island’s (part of Stewart Family Nature Preserves) steward, Winston Mott has kayaked out to the preserve and was able to report there was no change from previous years. Navy Island Nature Preserve has been inspected by Todd Watts and Ben Woodward. We will be working towards the establishment of a stewardship group for this Island; they will be taking initiative in the building of trails. Navy Island Conservation Easement donated by John Williamson extended the Nature Preserve to 61 acres. Pagan Point Nature Preserve is a recreational park in which tourism is more frequent during the summer. Jessie and Huw Davies, steward, reported it is one of St. Andrews greatest attractions. Pickerel Pond Nature Preserve has had no changes since last year according to steward, Chris Antle. Saints Rest Marsh Nature Preserve continues to be used by migratory and resident birds, and it appears to be in excellent health. The September 2010 water levels in the marsh ponds were higher than usual due to recent high tides that completely flooded the area. Staff and volunteers visited Thompson Marsh Nature Preserve this year to clean debris and begin the partial restoration of the small cemetery which exists along the preserve coast of the Bay of Fundy. The cemetery fence needs to be fixed next year.
A nnual R eport
Stewards Ida and David MacPherson have reported significant ATV activity on the Sea Dog Cove Nature Preserve. During the NTNB volunteer work day in June, major ATV damage was discovered. Volunteers and staff placed no hunting and no motorized vehicle signs along the boundaries and trails and posted signs in areas with dangerous cliffs. They have also contacted the Off-Road Vehicle Enforcement Unit with our concerns. Hopefully these measures will help protect the hundreds of Lady Slippers which have been discovered by David and Ida. The Thomas B. Munro Memorial Shoreline was visited by Ben and Renata Woodward, who cleared the trails and posted signs in areas with dangerous cliffs. Von Ziegesar Conservation Easement was inspected by Jessica McKeil, who reported no significant changes to the property. L’Etange Islands and Western Isles (part of Stewart Family Nature Preserves) and Shea Lake Nature Preserve were not visited this year. We would like to thank our stewards and volunteers for their great work this year! We would also like to thank Wildlife Trust Fund, Environmental Trust Fund, Environment Canada’s Habitat Stewardship Program, Crane Mountain Enhancement Fund, Greater Saint John Community Foundation, and Evergreen Wal-Mart for their generous contribution towards stewardship and management of our beautiful nature preserves.
