Morning snow and schooners in hibernation at the harbor entry from Casco Bay.Working down the waterfront, a life-size whale graphic at the Maine State Pier.Further out the pier, walking on water at the car ferry loading ramp.Also on the pier is the passenger ferry terminal, on the first level of a parking garage.Lobster boats at Custom House Wharf dealing with overcrowded shoreside facilities.Widgery Wharf has a new building, elevated in response to climate change and flooding.Widgery seen from Union Wharf – unpopular condos beyond on Chandler’s Wharf.Gulls enjoying gurry at the Portland Fish Exchange (display-auction since 1986).Some of the larger fishing vessels docked at Portland Fish Pier.US Coast Guard facility at Wrights Wharf (main USCG Station is across the harbor).Adjacent, on Commercial Street, is the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, Our host.It advances marine research, ecosystem/climate education, and the blue economy.
