Eben’s Unforgettable Summer Internship with Maine Outdoors

This past summer, the picturesque mid coast played host to an exciting partnership: Eben, a bright and enthusiastic intern, joined the Maine Outdoors team. As part of the Maine Tourism Association’s workforce development program, Tourism for ME, Eben’s internship promised adventure, learning, and a chance to experience the state’s vibrant outdoor industry.

Something about these just makes me smile!

Every September Broad Cove on the Saint George River is host to a good number of scoters (a sea duck). After nesting in the Arctic, they make a stop on the Maine coast. Read about their life history here.

 I have to admit that every time I see them; usually in a small flock, I have to smile.

Clownish face? Perky tail? For sure; but you have to admit that they make you smile too!

 

Changing Environment

A veiw over the stern of the Lund on our way homeI read this morning that Maine falls have gotten warmer over the last twenty or so years according to weather records. I don’t have any data but from where I sit that is the case. If you have nothing to do and reach back a long way in this blog you will see me writing about a few warm days in October in the north Maine Woods.
