[Maine-birds] Red and White-winged Xbills and a fisher, not a kingfisher on the Long Falls Dam Road today

David Ladd and I spent the better part of the midday on the Long Falls Dam Road today. We came across 17+ Red Crossbills (call notes recorded not yet identified), 7+ White-winged Crossbills, 70+ siskins, and the best creature of the day - a large male Fisher ambling across the road, clearly not a kingfisher. Really big animal. Happily no road Moose. Good Xbill pics will be up on Flickr tomorrow.

Long Falls Dam Road is off rt 16 north of Anson, De Lorme map 20 and then 30.

Very nice day to in boreal country.

Best, Peter and Laddy
