[Maine-birds] Northern Maine Birds: Northern Hawk Owl, Northern Goshawk, Northern Cardinal

The Northern Hawk Owl continues at the Access Road in Houlton and seen yesterday 2/19.

Also yesterday, I spotted an adult Northern Goshawk just west of Caribou.  The bird came out of the woods and passed just in front of me as I was driving home late in the afternoon.  What a luxury it is to actually have some daylight remaining when I make my evening commute!

The Hoary Redpoll I saw at my feeders all day on Sunday appears to have departed but my wintering Northern Cardinal is hanging tough.  

I have received photos of four Red Crossbills that are visiting a feeder in Presque Isle. Hope to check these out sometime soon.

Good birding
Bill
