Low tide in the morning on the Kennebunk river in Maine last week.
The Rachel Carson memory
The Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge on Nov. 4, 2016. What have we learned from the Silent Spring? On a global scale, are we heading for a Silent Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter?
Wood duck in the bog
We approached the bog and the ducks flew away. I wandered along the bank and waited twenty minutes for something to happen. Just before I turned to leave, this male wood duck flew in for a landing 10 yards away.

Leaves in the sun
Autumn drifting
On a quiet afternoon at the no-name pond, a hooded merganser swims slowly along. The exposed shoreline is a visible result of the summer drought.
The burning bush
Golden maple leaved
Fall impressions from the bog
A partly cloudy end to the day was brighter for a second on the beaver bog
Meandering ducks
In an inlet on a nearby lake, I usually find a flotilla of ducks. As we approach, they sometimes fly away in a rush. At other times, the will just mosey out of the inlet as we come closer, as shown above.
