[Maine-birds] Rockland-Camden area twitching, 1/31 (MEGU, PFGO, BUOR, etc)

Hi all,

Jeannette and I enjoyed an incredibly lucky and productive day birding in the Mid-Coast. Highlights were as follows:

1) 2nd cycle MEW GULL, Owl's Head Harbor, 9:25 to 9:55.
- present when we arrived, watched and photographed for about 20 minutes before flying out into bay.
- also 1 Belted Kingfisher.
- relocated MEW GULL off of Owl's Head Light at the state park, feeding in a tide line. Also, 2 Razorbills and 2 Black-legged Kittiwakes.

2) PINK-FOOTED GEESE
- 2 relocated off of Samoset Road by scoping across bay from parking lot at end of Fales Street in Rockland at 11:45.
- spotted between houses from Samoset Road, feeding on a lawn with about 15 Canada Geese. Photos.

3) 1 Northern Shrike, Mechanic Street boat launch, Rockland Harbor.

4) BULLOCK'S ORIOLE - arrived at 2:09 after we waited all of seven minutes. Sat in sun for a while before gorging at feeders. Lots of photos.

-Derek and Jeannette
