[Maine-birds] Monhegan Island, May 28, 2012

Additions to our weekend trip list for our last morning on Monhegan.
We finally pinned down some crossbills for a positive ID on at least
one flock of the many out there.

As of this morning, the white-eyed vireo and Tennessee warbler were
still singing in their usual spots, and still just as elusive to the
eye.

Other interesting birds reported today but not seen by us:
White-crowned sparrow-1 (Robby Lambert)
Olive-sided flycatcher-1, managed to continue to elude us

And then we returned home to a black-and-white warbler singing loudly
in the backyard, and a hummingbird buzzing the front yard--after
looking for both species for 3 days on the island!
