South Oromocto River No.2 (Smyth at Mill Settlement)

























Back Creek No. 2 (Hoyt Station)
























Rusagonis River No.2 (Patrick Owens)










The Patrick Owens bridge at Rusagonis, just south of Fredericton, is the only covered bridge in New Brunswick to feature a full length window along one side of it, making it much more interesting to photograph than the quality of my pictures here reflect.  A note on photographing this bridge: do not go early/mid morning, as the angle of the sun creates tough lighting to work with.  I was quite disappointed with mine when I got home.









The lesser viewed side of the Rusagonis bridge - no windows this side. This picture actually turned out okay because there was no glare from the sun into the lens.

Memramcook River No.4 (Boudreau)











Along with the Hartland covered bridge, the Memramcook River No.4/Gayton/Boudreau bridge is the only other covered bridge in the province to be registered on the list of Historic Places .  Well done to the people of Memramcook for initiating this!  What will it take to get as many of the rest of New Brunswick's covered bridges registered as possible, I wonder?
