We birded McClellan Town Park in Milbridge this morning and had good views of a very dark Peregrine Falcon flying along the shore as well as quick views of a Pine Warbler among a few Yellow-rumped Warblers. Closer to home in Harrington we encountered a flock of 18 Pine Siskins not far from our house. This evening as we were washing dishes and looking out our window at the bird feeder we saw two Ruffed Grouse messing around in a heavily fruit-laden Mountain Ash tree. It was fun to watch their comical maneuvers to keep their balance out on the small delicate branches as they stretched out for the berries.
The shorebirds around here seem to have all gone south except for a few Greater Yellow-legs in Harrington and the Addison marshes.
