Here’s our monthly photographic record of this iconic view from Brooklin’s Amen Ridge, with a semi-hidden bonus: a bald eagle hurrying home that you might have missed on your first glance.
As you probably know, this scene is one of the views to the east from our peninsula across Blue Hill and Jericho Bays to the western mountains on Mount Desert Island. MDI is Maine’s largest island and is accessible by bridge. It contains most of Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor, MDI’s largest town. (Image taken in Brooklin, Maine, on May 3, 2024)
