[Maine-birds] Frenchman Bay area...Brant

Thur. 13 June 2013
A single Brant was at Egg Rock in Frenchman Bay this afternoon. Unusual for this location and date.
Three Common Loons in non-breeding plumage were seen flying east across the bay together this afternoon.
No Common Eider ducklings yet. Herring Gulls still on nests.
Single Bald Eagle eaglet regularly being seen on Sheep Porcupine nest, not yet standing up on edge of nest however.
More Laughing Gulls than usual roosting on various places around the bay....Bar Harbor breakwater, Egg Rock, various buoys. There have always been a few but so far this summer they are much more common.
A few Gannets have been seen off Schoodic Pt. but none have made excursions up into the bay in spite a large schools of fish being seen on the fish finder.
