[Maine-birds] Essex Street Woods, Bangor: 9 Snowy Egrets & more

This afternoon there were at least 9 Snowy and at least 5 Great Egrets at Essex St.    The Snowies will allow fairly close approach, especially on the Watchmaker St. side of the trail.    At least one Merlin was scouring the area and perching out in the open on dead trees, and one adult Green Heron was also seen along with 8-9 Blue Winged Teal.   Zero shorebirds were seen, possibly due to the Merlin's presence.
