Other Wildlife
In addition to Loons, Great East is home to many other kinds of wildlife, including beaver, muskrat, turtles, otters, deer and even the occasional Moose, bear, mountain lion, fisher cat.
Frequently seen birds include bald eagles, great blue heron, cormorants and mergansers (which are often confused with loons) and ducks.
Please do not feed ducks, as the parasites in their feces can cause bad rashes known as swimmers itch.
