Fairly large flock of glossy ibis yesterday afternoon (60+) in a muddy cow pasture on Rt 9 (Hallowell Rd), just south of Loring Ln. north of Royal Rd. in Pownal. I'm a recent midwest transplant, been here just two weeks and have only done backyard birding in Maine, so I was a little startled, having seen them only tropically in the past. (I see the earlier post below.) The neighbor whose drive I pulled-off on says they've been feeding in that pasture a couple days. Nobody knew what they were; the farmer called them "mud shits!" After a while they flew off to the east, and when I re-checked just before dusk the cows had moved in.
