[Maine-birds] MACHIAS SEAL ISLAND REPORT

Quite a heavy movement through here last night; a combination of
passerines and shorebirds.

So far I haven't seen anything unusual but the BAYBREASTED & CHESTNUT
SIDED WARBLERS continue in numbers, as well as COMMON YELLOWTHROATS,
female REDSTARTS & mixed FLYCATCHERS.

The night movement of shorebirds seemed to be mainly phalaropes, the
same as the previous night. The main difference was the ratio of
species. Tuesday night was clearly dominated by RED PHALAROPES while
Wednesday (last night) appeared to favour RED NECKED PHALAROPES.
