[Maine-birds] Morse Mountain - Plucky Piping Plover Perpetually Pesters Placid Peeps

Excited to see four Piping Plovers along Seawall Beach. They were vigorously chasing the visiting flocks of Semipalmated Plovers & Sandpipers, Sanderlings, Least Sandpipers and others. Quite a sight to see.

Six lovely looking Whimbrel were present, a lifer for me. Shorebird migration season is kicking off once again!

Also, anyone attempting Morse Mountain before 10am would do well to layer up and get a bug net. Bugs were maddeningly thick today.
