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!
