#spark plug lighthouse

Lubec Channel Light, Lubec, Maine. At low tide, the "Spark Plug" is virtually surrounded by mud. This mud is one of the top spots in the state for fall shorebird watching. Thousands of sandpipers, plovers and other little long legged birds make a stop here, to fatten up on worms and other small invertebrates, before making their way south for winter.

Goose Rocks Light, Penobscot Bay, North Haven, Maine. Back in the day, being a lighthouse keeper in Maine required a taste for lobster. Especially in a "spark plug" style beacon, with no land for a garden. Many meals were provided by local lobstermen.
