Sunday, 06.07.2008 Acadia NP

 

South of Bangor (Maine) there is the Acadia National Park - our next stop!

The Mount Desert Campground is - like me - 50  that summer!!!!

Somes Harbour (near the Campground) is related with the ocean because itīs part of the Somes Sound

You can make boat-trips there.....

.... or you can watch birds - like this Osprey hunting!!!

.....

Success!!!

It needs a lot of power to lift that big fish!

.....

What a wonderful bird of pray!!!
