[Maine-birds] More on Easternmost Nester - Newfoundland

Have gotten some great, well-considered answers, and at least one of you is narrowing it down to the gum ball winning answer.  

But first, a necessary qualification.  John Crookes points out the following:

At 179°46' East (in the Eastern Hemisphere), the easternmost tip of Semisopochnoi is, by longitude, the easternmost land location in the United States and North America. Semisopochnoi sits only 14 minutes west of the 180th meridian.


For the purposes of the present quiz, Semisopochnoi doesn’t count.  Our next quiz might be how to pronounce Semisopochnoi.
