  • 2/17/11 -- HARPSWELL, Maine. David Wilson Sr. of Harpswell, left, digs clams in Quahog Bay on Thursday afternoon. He and a small group of diggers cut through the ice at low water to dig here. Wilson is regarded as the best digger on the coast of Maine by his peers for stamina, " He just brings 'em in, " said one digger nearby..Quahog Bay was reopened for digging on Feb 11 2011 after many years of closure, according to Department of Marine Resources Biotoxin Monitoring Manager, Darcie Couture. She wrote, "This area had been closed for many years due to failing water quality, caused by bacterial pollution. A serious pollution source was recently identified and remediated.  The area will close in June for the summer, because unfortunately, this area, like many others on the Maine coast, suffer from the increased pressure of a seasonal summer population, which negatively impacts water quality, and results in many of our shellfish resources remaining closed to harvest during that time."

  • A crab claw bleaches in the sun on a rock where lichen grows on a Maine Island in Penobscot Bay. .Seagulls often take crabs from their usual habitat, in tide pools along the shore, and drop them from great heights on the rocky beach, breaking their shells. The gulls eat the interior of the body and leave behind the hard and heavy claws. When the claw dries, it changes color from its original green or brown to a red or orange. Eventually, the shell will bleach completely white, become paper thin and disintegrate. ..Lichen, of the kingdom Fungi, commonly grows on rocks and trees on the Maine coast. It grows in many different colors including yellow, red, green and grey -- depending on the area, the and the amount of moisture in the area. It often lives in symbiosis with algae, without which it will not grow on the rock. The combined efforts of Lichen and algae digs tiny grooves into the surface of the host rock which assist the process of erosion. Water often collects in the grooves and, in the winter, freezes, cracking additional rock away, making an easy channel for more water and a protected space for more lichen. Eventually, the rocks give way to sand, and soil, where grasses can grow. .Lichen plays an extremely important part of the food chain. .Lichen is also very susceptible to the effects of air pollution. Lichen will be among the first creatures to be affected by poor air quality. Photo and caption by Roger S. Duncan.

  • A Sea Urchin sits high up in the intertidal zone on a rocky beach in Eastern Maine.
