🐾 THE CLUES
1️⃣
I am large, stone, and impossible to miss.
I stand on the Eastern Shore near Silver Sands Beach Park and welcome travellers.
⸻
2️⃣
I am not alive, but I watch like a flock.
Forty-two carvings of me hang indoors, frozen in motion.
⸻
3️⃣
I have wings but prefer violence, I travel in groups, and if I start running toward you, it’s already too late. You’ll find me near a Dartmouth pond.
⸻
4️⃣
I am where injured wildlife are given a second chance.
Wings, paws, and wild hearts all come here to heal before returning home.
⸻
5️⃣
I am a name of a community.
I’m named after a builder who never asks permission.
⸻
6️⃣
I sit quietly in a Halifax park, cast in bronze and memory.
I honour loyalty, companionship, and the bond between people and animals.
⸻
7️⃣
I am a place of discovery of the world beneath the ocean’s surface.
Whales, seals, and deep-sea life are studied and understood within my walls.
⸻
8️⃣
You’ll find me standing in Stewiacke with massive tusks and a prehistoric stare. I represent a giant Ice Age animal whose remains were once discovered right here in Nova Scotia.
