The water levels in the big wetlands at Moosehorn NWR along Route 1 in Calais/Baring are extremely high because the St. Croix River is overflowing and has backed up water into the wetlands.  One dike is completely submerged, and another is nearly so.  The birds didn't seem to mind though.  The teal and kingfishers were feeding in the flooded fields.  Here are some of the birds we saw there today:

Bald eagles

ospreys

American kestrel

pied-billed grebe (FOY)

American wigeon male and female (FOY) at McLaughlin

black ducks

mallards

green-winged teal

common goldeneyes

hooded mergansers

Canada geese

dc cormorants

belted kingfishers (FOY)

tree swallows (FOY)
