[Maine-birds] Ducktrap River Preserve, Lincolnville, 6.17.14

My husband Paul and I did a short survey for Coastal Mountains Land Trust at the Ducktrap River Preserve this morning. The woods were very thrush-y: singing Swainson's Thrush, at least 2 pairs of Hermit Thrushes, and several Veerys were a highlight. Also, Blue-headed Vireo, Winter Wren, Scarlet Tanager, 11 species of warbler including several Blackburnians singing in the hemlocks, and a shrieking raven which we later saw at a road-killed squirrel. 

Interesting flora included a few Moccasin Flowers (Pink Lady's Slipper) still in bloom.
