[Maine-birds] eBird Report - Burnham, Route 100, Farm Fields, Jun 7, 2012

Here's the complete list of what I saw/heard while hoping to spot the
Scissor-tailed Flycatcher earlier today. Quite a birdy spot, beautiful
fields along the Sebasticook River. Also hung out a bit with a
woodchuck that appears to be living in the garage of the abandoned
farmhouse near where the STFL was being seen. (Also, please note that
I did hear/see a Baltimore Oriole!)
