Week 5 of the 10-week Earth Skills Semester Program is finished.  It’s been a great semester, and our new ground ere in Aroostook County has been flat-out amazing.  Last week I saw a lynx sneaking around camp, and I’ve been enjoying all the other wildlife we’ve seen.  In addition to the bald eagles, osprey, kestrels, geese, and othere, we get to see a northern harrier hunting in the field almost daily.  It’s amazing to watch it fly.  We’ve also seen bears, moose, deer, turkeys, foxes, and a few other species.
Next weekend we’ll be attending the Maine Primitive Gathering, then a few days exploring the high alpine country of the White Mountains before the weather gets too cold.  Have a great fall!
