[Maine-birds] White-eyed Vireo still present on Ingersol Point

I hiked the Ingersol Point Preserve trails today (South Addison) and was surprised to see the White-eyed Vireo again.  It was in the same location at the old homesite on Ingersol Point and at one point the bird was perched in sunlight close to me, preening and then began to squeak a song!  I also pished out one each: Yellow-rumped Warbler, Hermit Thrush and Catbird.  From the shore I saw a flotilla of Horned and Red-necked Grebes, Surf Scoters and Common Loons.  In the boreal forest I observed, again, another mixed flock that had a few Boreal Chickadees among the Black-capped. 

This new preserve has potential to be a great birding area and am delighted that it is a 20-minute drive from our Harrington house (unles I get hi-jacked by the shorebirds in the Addison Ponds by the Pleasant River bridge.
