[Maine-birds] Red- Billed Tropicbird

Old Quarry Ocean Adventures in Stonington has two more trips out to see the Red-billed Tropicbird on Seal Island scheduled for August 4th and August 11 from 2-7 PM. We have seen it both times we have done this trip this season. We have also seen a leucistic Great Black-backed Gull, Parasitic Jaeger, and today 100s of Wilson's Storm-petrels, dozens of Northern Gannet (25), Common Loon, Bald Eagle, Atlantic Puffins, Razorbills, Common Murre (sometimes bridled), Laughing Gull, nesting Great Cormorants, Double-crested Cormorant, Semipalmated Plover and Sandpiper, Spotted Sandpiper, Arctic and Common Tern, Red-necked Phalaropes (50ish), Grey Seals, Harbor Seals and Harbor Porpoise. Another birdy trip out to the island. The boat leaves at 2:00 from Settlement Rd in Stonington. Hopefully the next trip will have some more shearwaters!
