Gull on watch
During a mid-winter walk at the Gardiner (Maine) Landing, a few gulls were hanging, or standing, along the river front.

Our visit last week to the Mount Pisgah Conservation land treated us to this unique, perhaps sinister, inhabitant. Our walk through this easement of the Kennebec Land Trust property (Winthrop and Wayne, Maine) occurred on a pleasant Fall day, with sun and warmth.
An egret at Potter’s Brook
During a hike near Pleasant pond in Litchfield (Maine), we encountered a not-so-typical sight: an egret hung around the Potter’s brook outlet into the pond. We do not see egrets very often here, a nice surprise.
