[Maine-birds] Cherryfield birds

Lately, Sandy and I have been walking the trails along the Narraguagus River and looping inland below the Rte 1 bridge in Cherryfield. This is turning out to be a good place. From 11:15-12:15 this morning we had 5 species of warblers, both Swainson's and Hermit Thrushes, Robin, Catbird, Junco, Song and White-throated Sparrows, Blue-headed Vireo, Bald Eagle, DC Cormorant, Herring Gull, and a few mystery birds. 18 species in all, so I'm forgetting something. Yesterday we had (among many of the same birds as today) Spotted Sandpiper, Kingfisher, Great Blue Heron, Brown Creepers and Golden-crowned Kinglets. 

To get to this place, go south on Wilson Hill Rd. from the Rte 1 bridge, and pull over on the left when the road begins to sweep uphill to the right. Walk in on the dirt road. 

BTW, walking along the river between the bridges (on the west side) can be good too. Lately there have been lots of phoebes and sparrows, including Savannahs by the big field.
