[Maine-birds] Broad-Winged Hawks and Pied-Billed Grebe - Cumberland

Was working with the doors and windows open and heard the unmistakable  call of a Broad-Winged Hawk so I went out and found 3 kettling on the rising thermals from Bruce Hill. The calls have been intermittent for about 20 minutes now and every time I look out there are 2-3 in view so I am not sure if it is only 3 enjoying the day, or if it is a larger group passing in turns. Nice to see though!

 

Also, the Pied-Billed Grebe was still present this morning at Springbrook Farms on Greely Road. It was in the front pond next to the road.

 

Cheers to all!
