Eagle watch




When I rented a cottage at Southwest Harbor in Acadia called Eagle Watch, I was not aware that we would have our own eagle right outside our deck, but that's how it was.

Our cottage overlooked Southwest Harbor and our eagle liked to perch in the pine tree which you see. It was such a delight to watch him watch for food. He came at high tide and low tide. I got some picture of him eating on the shore at low tide, but he was hard to capture in flight because he would sit on that pine limb for hours.

Charles and Luella from Dallas were also fascinated by our unexpected addition to the cottage.

We toured Acadia during one of the worst winds I have experienced on the island. It rained on and off for most of our stay, but we had a rewarding time watching the surf. I will be blogging about the waves later.
