The highly-variable seasonality at Eagle Hill and in eastern Maine is delightful and inspirational. From mid-May through mid-September, the animals and plants on the coast Maine thrive on the long days and warm temperatures. The spectacular fall foliage season, from mid-September through the beginning of November, is a cool and pleasant time to wander the woods an take in landcape-level views from promontories. Likewise, when snowfalls begin blanketing our boreal forest in the months of December through the end of March, the woods are transformed into a serene wintry landscape. With the coming of spring and the melting snows, the mossy woods glow with a lush greenness and are permeated with the smells of earthly renewal and the calls of the returning songbirds.
