With fall in full swing here at NEOC, our Maine guide, Ken was again pulling double duty today as he guided our two daily wildlife tours. On this bright and sunny morning he was able to get out on Millinocket Lake with his group of 2 in tow. As they motored across the lake they were able to see a kingfisher, ducks, geese and loons, along with 2 bald eagles. But then, as they meandered by Sandy Beach they caught sight of not 1, not 2, but 3 moose! There was a cow, a calf and a young bull standing right on the beach! For the afternoon tour the wind had picked up so Ken decided it was best to go by van. As they headed up to the Sofa Pit they saw a grouse and a great blue heron. What a great day!
