[Maine-birds] large #, Glossy ibis- Totman Cove, Phippsburg, Apr 21, 2013

birds seen from my house. nothing special species wise, but high count for Glossy Ibis, one large flock of 6 birds flying over. Red Breasted merg and Common eider #s continue to build. Also seeing a few Red throated loons where they had been 'abscent' for a while. And, the common loons are VERY vocal, esp when any eagles around. Also doing their courting water surface racing thing. Lots of Horned grebes around.
