Woolwich, Maine

I stopped by the Taste of Maine - and the chick was looking good! She was working on a big fish for much of the time I was watching, then some friends arrived and I joined them for dinner - and we were out of sight of the nest.  When I left at 8 pm, it was getting dark and the nest was empty.  I wondered if she would return after a late flight - or if she's now spending her nights perched near Dad. 

And because I am late adding this post to my timeline - I now know that these are my last pictures of the fledgling, though others continued to see her for a few more weeks. So I am adding a few more than I might have done otherwise. ~added 9/21/14

Safe travels, young one! I wish you fair winds, and lots of fish!
