Deer Island is as picturesque as you might imagine the Maritime fishing villages to be. You can see the lobster pounds in the background. This is where they keep lobsters alive after they catch them. Since the season is only a few months long, they can catch them now, sell them later at higher prices when they are out of season. The bird is a Bonaparte's gull in non-breeding plumage, the only gull that regularly nests in trees.
