[Maine-birds] Swainson's Hawk in Wells/Kennebunk?

Took my lunch to Laudholm Beach today and scoped the water. Nothing remarkable there, but just as I was leaving a hawk passed overhead. The only fit I can find for the field marks is Swainson's Hawk. No photos. It was moving northeast toward Kennebunkport at about 12:45.

Sorry for the late post. Raced back just in time for a meeting.

Checked eBird and found this from Essex Co. Mass. a few weeks ago:

Looks like what I saw.

Someone else find the bird, please.
