Fort Scammel in distance

Fort Scammel was the main defense of Portland Harbor during the Civil War

I was watching an eagle circling the bay until it dropped down 

and caught a fish and flew over to this nest and fed the 

screaming little ones. You can just see the nest on the piling.

TITANIC CEMETERY HALIFAX

years back- all the passengers boarded Titanic which then sailed 

off into an ice berg in 1912 

The only infant body recovered. People visit 

and leave stuffed animals.
