[Maine-birds] schoodic point saturday

The rain subsided entirely for a two hour period this afternoon at Schoodic Point (1 - 3 PM).
Three species of shearwaters were visible between the reach of 8X binocs and a 25X scope.
Greater 22, Sooty 7, and Manx 2.   This should bode well for the pelagic tomorrow.
Three species of scoter:  Surf 54, Black 44, White-winged 3.
Northern Gannet   37
Red-throated Loon  2
Common Loon  4
Greater Yellowlegs  1
Spotted Sandpiper  1
Merlin 2 (following along the rocks of the point)
