[Maine-birds] EURASIAN WIGEON still at Bass Harbor Marsh mid-day today; Mt. Desert Island

Hi all -- I met up with the Lima family today at the Bass Harbor Marsh on MDI, right around noon. We had the two species of wigeon close to "Abner's Bridge" (birds on the north side of Rte 102), and with some work and a scope we also relocated the drake N. Pintail. This was a flood high tide, so the birds were working in the flooded grass. Probably easier to find them with the tide's out just a bit and they are back in the channel.

The Limas have good cameras, so maybe they'll post a pic or two in eBird. Mine are bad but diagnostic.

Also noted one "mallard" that was all pale yellow/white. Curious.

Best,
Craig K
