West Bath, Bull Rock Road landing
36 Common Goldeneye
2 Barrows Goldeneye drake
18 Buffleheads
1 clammer
Phippsburg, Me Map 6 Totman Cove
drainer low tide of -1.6 feet brought in big # of birds, though nothing species wise out of the ordinary
42 Bonaparte's gulls whirling around and 'diving' onto water at edge of tide line
Herrings and Ringbilled per usual
Common Goldeneyes 12
Bluffleheads 9
RB merges 21
RT loons 3
Common loons 4
LT ducks 11
White winged scoters 13
Surf scoters 5
Horned grebes 11
Red necked grebe 1
Trip to Portland today (4 hours at the Social Security office on behalf of my 102yr old grandmother. I feel nearly as old as she IS after that waiting ordeal)
I always count raptors on the trip south and north again on the 295 corridor,
red tailed hawks 4
Northern Harrier 1
Red shouldered hawk 1
only one in flight and that was a Redtailed
I should add, in fairness, that the people at the Social Security office could not have been nicer. It just took, well, 102 years it seemed.
