Ice is a common substance and we take I for granted. F.W. Sunday, December 3. While watching 15 Common Goldeneyes swim with 2 Barrow's Goldeneyes on the Penobscot River, I saw 2 River Otters swimming downstream behind the goldeneyes. It was quite a binocular-full of activity. J.K.M. Sunday, December 3.

40 were in my yard, eating crabapples and winterberry. J.K.M. Monday, December 4. Little Black Lake. Winter has fully arrived. The lake began freezing Nov. 18, and was completely frozen over Nov. 24.
