We didn't see any whales (first time in Maine that the whales didn't show up), but we did see a very close ocean Sunfish!

This is front a different trip - this one was to Seal Island in July. It looked like it was going to rain...

And we also saw a yellow-nosed albatross... oh wait, that's a decoy.

That being Maine, we also looked for some loons, and found this family of them in the Acadia National Park:
