[Maine-birds] Sandy Point Morning Flight, 9/11.



Hi all,

Despite a great flight overnight, only a light flight passed over and through Sandy Point Beach, Cousin's Island, Yarmouth this morning. As usual, a west wind produced a high and distant flight, but a WSW component dramatically reduced crossings soon after sunrise.

6:15-9:25

53, Clear, WSW 1.8 to 4.9 to WSW 3.8 to 7.1mph.
