[Maine-birds] Mud Creek and Schoodic this morning

Hi all --
In passing through, the Mud Creek Rd in Lamoine yielded a single Eastern Bluebird (in "Fennelyville"), an Osprey perching on a wire over Mud Creek and apparently hunting from that perch (unusual to see that behavior, I think?), and a single Am. Kestrel.

At Schoodic Point this morning my wife and I enjoyed a small number of shorebirds including Semi Plovers, Least, Semisands, one Solitary, and two White-rumps. Mammals included 4 harbor porpoise close enough to loop road that we could hear them blow, one gray seal, one red fox, and two suicidal rodents (the ones that decide to cross an otherwise empty road right in front of you).

Best,
Craig K

p.s. if you start the day with breakfast at Chester Pikes in Sullivan, you don't have to see bird one. You've already pinned your happy meter.
