Summary

[edit]
Description

These gulls were on the beach in Biddeford Pool, Maine. I had gone there hoping to catch a snowy owl but they must have returned to Canada. I had to settle for the gulls.

Biddeford Pool is a large tidal pool, located off Saco Bay south of the mouth of the Saco River on the south coast of Maine. It is approximately 6 miles southeast of downtown Biddeford and the town of Kennebunkport is 3 miles southwest.

Biddeford Pool is the site of Maine's first recorded permanent settlement, then called Winter Harbor. In the winter of 1616-1617, Richard Vines, a physician, resided here as part of the colonization efforts of Sir Ferdinando Gorges, lord proprietor of Maine. An early village developed on the north side. In 1708, Fort Mary was built near the pool's entrance.
