Title: Sandy Island, Part 2
Post by: Paul Hamilton on 03-Sep-10, 04:25:40 PM
We saw lots of wildlife during our second week on the island.  Both Mary and Catherine saw lots of Meadow Voles, a species that I had never seen there before.  Unfortunately, I never saw a single one.  I did, however, get to spend time with a lot of local critters whole learning to use my new Fujifilm HS10 camera.

Here (http://www.kodakgallery.com/gallery/sharing/shareRedirectSwitchBoard.jsp?token=553096999803%3A1045315777&sourceId=533754321803&cm_mmc=eMail-_-Share-_-Photos-_-Sharee)   is the story of our second week on Sandy Island, and here (http://www.kodakgallery.com/ShareLanding.action?c=baawt8n.bdwyg2jv&x=0&y=o3fy6g&localeid=en_US&cm_mmc=site_email-_-site_share-_-core-_-view_photos_button) is a Classic version that does not require the latest Flash.

Enjoy,

Paul

This video (http://www.blip.tv/file/3564971) comes to mind. Lots of family interaction here, plus the "wail" as a contact call when the parents are a long distance apart.

Yeah, this was a good one Paul. The water hitting the rocks is calming. Thanks.

A beautiful loon video. I love the call of these birds.
