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

Hi Bill and all,

Have been seeing baby birds of Robin, Chickadee and ? ....... First Ovenbird
evening mating/territorial flight and a short call at 9:45 PM .. I was
planting the garden before the rain....

A couple more Black-billed Cuckoo have been seen during the last week and I
thought I had a short call from a Whip-poor-will (Antrostomus vociferus) I
did not report this.

The Hulls Cove Eaglet appears to be growing well after a nice observation
for the Hughes Family from Ohio.

Michael

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.
