Moose Return for a Little Nap in the Snow

The moose returned in the afternoon for a sunbath in the snow that lasted about four hours. After a good rest they feasted on some frozen crabapples and wandered off for a night on the town.

Girl Scouts Visit The Whistlesmith

Recently we hosted Abnaki Girl Scout Troop #63 Junior Girl Scouts at The Whistlesmith in Northern Maine. The girls are 10 to 12 years in age and it was their first experience with playing the whistle. We gave several whistle demonstrations on the High C and High D whistles and the girls all had a great time. The girls and their leader Penny Kern, each received a High C whistle for their music project. They are going to play these whistles at the local nursing homes for the holidays to entertain the elderly. Click on the picture for a larger version!

Moose Visit The Whistlesmith

We've been fortunate to have twin bull moose visit us on a daily basis right behind the whistle shop. These two thousand pound moose are definitely amazing and like to snort and stomp around eating frozen crabapples. Photos were take about 30 feet away from these two characters and I played them a couple of tunes on the whistle just to add to my list of whistling adventures.
