[Maine-birds] pictures of AMERICAN GOLDEN PLOVERS, Tuckahoe Turf Farm, Berwick, Sep 16, 2015

Hello,

I was at Tuckahoe and was counting the AMERICAN GOLDEN PLOVERS and
KILLDEER when a MERLIN came through and chased everything out of the area,
bad bird!! But before they left, Six of the 7 GOLDEN PLOVERS flew around
the farm about 4 times. On one of the passes they came very close to me and
I managed to get some fairly nice flight shots, and posted six of them on my
Flickr page:

Happy birding

RULES: never drive on the grass. avoid driving on single lane roads and
taking the chance of getting in their way. You may walk on the grass, I
avoid the newly sowed areas.
I usually go after 5 PM or on weekends.
