Today was another scouting day, trying to find pockets of Spruce Grouse
closer to MDI for the Acadia Birding Festival. Tried out a couple more
Frenchman's Bay Conservancy trails, including Schoodic Bog trail. Wouldn't
you know it? I had a male in the path only a hundred yards from where I
parked. In the woods, I heard a female calling seductively to him. It
turned out that two females were teasing him. I sat down and watched for a
while, since they were much more interested in each other than in me.
Also nabbed 9 White-winged Crossbills and 3 Reds. For photos:

Coming back down the hill, there was an American Woodcock doing the Hokey
Pokey across the road. That comical video is on YouTube:
