[Maine-birds] Snow buntings in Vassalboro

Flock of approximately 35 snow buntings in a field on Nelson Road in Vassalboro today. They were in a field near the road. I was driving and when I slowed to have a look, the car behind me passed and caused them to fly off. Could not tell if there was anything mixed in with them.

Over the weekend I had 50+ robins descend on the mountain ash tree in my yard in China. There were 9 cedar wax wings mixed in with them.

After about a week of seeing few birds at the feeders, today was like Grand Central Station!! 20+ gold finches, 7 common redpolls, 15 chickadees, 1 hairy woodpecker, 2 downies, 1 pileated , 1 Carolina wren, 2 northern cardinals ( male and female), 2 tufted titmouse, 15 mourning doves, 6 crows, 6 bluejays, 14 American tree sparrows, 1 white breasted nuthatch, 2 purple finches, and 3 juncos.
