Moose in Pond
This moose is just pulling its head up from eating plants on the bottom of the pond.
Loon
No nature photography blog in Maine would be complete without a loon! This is from Great Meadow Stream, a connector stream between North and Great Ponds in the Belgrade Lakes region.
Weathered Rocks
I’m always fascinated by the many shapes of the weathered rocks along the Acadia shoreline. This is on Little Hunters Beach.
Katahdin
Mount Katahdin from one of the overlooks in the new Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument.
South Bubble
The granite face of South Bubble viewed from the Jordan Cliffs trail today in Acadia National Park. The trail climbs along the exposed cliffs of Penobscot Mountain with views of Pemetic mountain to the east, Jordan Pond, the North and South Bubble, and Otter Cove in the distance.
Tamaracks and White Pines
Commonly found in northern bogs and other low-lying areas, the tamarack is a deciduous conifer with needles that turn yellow in fall. These trees are on the shoreline of Round Pond in Maine’s Kennebec Highlands Public Reserved Land.
