[Maine-birds] MACHIAS SEAL ISLAND REPORT

As noted by others, especially Northward, much of yesterday's pulse of SONG SPARROWS seemed to move out overnight.
Today, along with the remaining Song Sparrows, there was a fair number of newly arrived SAVANNAH SPARROWS.
Among them were several IPSWITCH-TYPE Savannahs.
We had both Song and Savannah Sparrows singing this morning.

Also new on the island today:
more ROBINS;
a couple STARLINGS;
a lone MOURNING DOVE;
a few HERRING GULLS  (apparently claiming nest territory).

Around the island yesterday and today:
flocks of COMMON MURRES;
medium large rafts of RAZORBILLS;
multiple groups of COMMON EIDERS;
several small flocks of LONG-TAILED DUCKS;
a few BLACK GUILLEMOTS ;
a few GREAT CORMORANTS;
continuing HARLEQUIN DUCKS (40-50).
