[Maine-birds] Sandy Point Morning Flight, 9/18

Hi all,

After a flood like yesterday morning, I am not disappointed by the slow, but steady trickle through Sandy Point, Cousin's Island, Yarmouth this morning.  It was a more manageable number to count, with quite a few birds lower than yesterday, and often only a few at a time; it was easier to sort through.
