Hi all,

Just a few other, non-Little-Egret, sightings of note over the past seven days included:

- 18+ Cory's Shearwaters with 26+ large shearwater sp., but unclear as to exact numbers...could have been many more, could have been swirling birds between 1:20 and 2:30pm at Dyer Point, Cape Elizabeth, 7/10 (with Jason Lambert and Kristen Lindquist).

- 26 Black Scoters, Simpson's Point, Brunswick, 7/11.

- 1 Fish Crow, Community Park, Wells, 7/12 (with Jeannette).
