[Maine-birds] Chickawaukee Lake Coots

About 40 American Coots huddled in 2 groups at Chicky mid-lake (Rte 17 in Rockland) this morning. This lake is a favored fall destination for the species, sometimes reaching 600-700 individuals in certain years. Just a few Canadas, mallards, hoodies today, but this scene (and Mace's Pond a mile further west on 17) should grow livelier in coming weeks.
