- Here is a Momma Moose and her twin calves shuffling around Rock Harbor just mere feet away from our lodge room. This was two days prior to our arrival. The pictures were given to us from the staff. She never showed up again during our time there, but she did leave a large gift on the sidewalk one evening! Very large!
- Look closely on the pier shot and you will see a Loon and her babies (little loonies?) in the shadowed areas. Loons were also swimming around us when we were canoeing in Tobin harbor.
- This is the guesthouse where folks gathered to play games, read or sit around the fireplace. See the squirrel on the floor? I guess he wanted to play? We sent him outside to play after the photo.
- Antlers discarded by a moose. There is a spot on the other end of the island where the staff stacks them all up. There are dozens there. Kind of sad. Some moose are killed by the wolves and others die for other reasons.

Wow ... I've never seen a moose up close. That is so much fun. Although, I dont' think I'd be too keen on the squirrel in the house!
Oh, wow, I really love the critter pics. And had I been the boys' ages, I would have wanted to bring home some moose antlers. Can't believe you shooed the squirrel out, though-he was probably just after some Chex mix or something. :)
Since it is a biosphere preserve they are VERY strict about removing ANYTHING natural from the island. Not even so much as a small rock!
