SHELBURNE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, NS

Finalist 1 for the People’s flag
Osprey over coastline

DESCRIPTION
“A white osprey silhouette soars over the southwest to northeast coastline where the green forest meets the blue ocean.”

REFERENCES
Shelburne DM has a flag, but has never responded to my request for what it looks like, so this will have to be for the People’s flag. The motto of the municipality is where the forest meets the ocean, represented by the green and blue, respectively, with that coastline running southwest to northeast as in this geographical flag (term by Ted Kaye). The osprey is the bird of the municipality, and is rendered in white to soar over that coastline, covering the blue and green with white and a stark image for greater contrast and memorability.

This is a personal project I have been doing for a year, not an effort by the municipality or its citizens.
