[Maine-birds] Basket Island Causeway (11/9/16)

Hi all,

I birded the Basket Island Causeway at Hills Beach in Biddeford this morning during the falling tide. Highlights included a Barrow's Goldeneye, a continuing Marbled Godwit, and a continuing Red Knot. On Sky Harbor Drive, there was a late Baltimore Oriole.

The full species list is below. See photos on my eBird checklist: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S32445635
