Horned Grebe at the Celery Farm
My first ever here. And the spring arrivals are arriving! The grebe was No. 186 on my Celery Farm life…
Saw these two nature mysteries on an Acadia Birding Festival walk at Sieur de Monts in Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island.
Doug Hitchcox of Maine Audubon led the walk, and I served as his batboy.
The mysteries: What's the story with these two photos?
