[Maine-birds] ANCIENT MURRELET in Shelburne Vermont! (April report)

Brandon Frank and Emily Hall were out fishing on Shelburne Pond on April
17, 2014 when an "odd duck" swam by them along the shoreline.
Thankfully, they had enough curiosity to take a video of it with their
cell phone. After a couple of months, the video has finally surfaced
and it turns out the "duck" is a breeding plumage ANCIENT MURRELET!
Thanks to Len Medlock for sending the video along to me.

And thanks to Rob Muessel and Brandon Frank for allowing me to share
this remarkable video with other birders in the region. Just goes to
show.....you just never know!
