[Maine-birds] Biddeford birds

After the rain stopped I got out to do a little bit of birding around Biddeford. A flock of about 30 pine siskins briefly alighted in my yard before moving on, and White-throated Sparrow continue to increase in number, as do Palm Warblers. Also saw my first Black-throated Blue of the fall as well. Heading over to the coast, Fortunes Rock beach had all 3 scoter species, a red-breasted merganser and 2 red-necked grebes. Eastern Point had some decent seawatching, with my first 2 Red-throated Loons winging by (heading north!), dozens of Gannets, again all three scoters and several distant shearwaters, including a manx, a few greaters and a sooty.

Good Birding
